if that's from specific yahoo account, then probably owner of the accoune
does something wrong. I'd look at the score to inspect the problem itself.

Then, user can do whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] yahoo.com, which is a
bit safer than pure whitelisting of from address. Unluckily, yahoo seems not
to run SPF, which would make such whitelist even more safer.

Or maybe the user from specific account is sending from different servers
than yahoo's, which may cause the problem (if those are listed in RBL's)

I was thinking that yahoo.com was already whitelisted by SpamAssassin  
but all I found was:


60_whitelist.cf
def_whitelist_from_rcvd  [EMAIL PROTECTED]yahoo- 
inc.com
def_whitelist_from_rcvd  [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
yahoo.com


Shouldn't the second line leave out the -inc part to whitelist Y!  ?

This copy of the cf file is from /var/mail/spamassassin/3.002002/

  Hello Everyone,

  I am using amavisd-new which uses spamassassin with postfix+mysql setup.

  Amavisd-new is scanning messages and is reinjecting messages to postfix 
through smtp.

  I would like to know how can I manage spam scores so that certain domain like 
yahoo.com gets lower score.

  My user requested that there are false positive when it is sent from specific 
yahoo.com account.

  Please help!
