Thanks Michael, this sheds some light as where to start fixing. I can play around with the position of this in the filter list and if need be recreating it.
What I'm wondering about is that obviously other messages, like the one from my family listserver does get evaluated, this does confuse me a bit, because it shows that messages do get passed on down the filter list, but why would SpamSieve analyse my family list but not true spam? ---marlyse ------------ former message(s) quotes: ------------- > That means that SpamSieve never analyzed this message to see whether > it was spam. Somehow, your PowerMail filter that says "Evaluate spam > rating" isn't being applied (perhaps because of other filters > interfering), or isn't working.
