If all you want to do is change the threshold you might be able to get
away with the more_spam_to or use ordinary rules to change the score
per address.

If the rule is marked as noautolearn (or userconf) it wont affect
auto-learning e.g.

tflags USER_IN_MORE_SPAM_TO userconf nice noautolearn

remember all the problems it brings like for mailing-lists as this one?


Well, they also changed the SPF protocol so that -all should not be used.
Using ~all causes processing to continue through DKIM and DMARC, and then
the failure gets reported to the "ruf" address. Using -all is just for
SPF-only people


ah so i need to implement on my side DMARC to give them the benefit of 
DMARC reports while i could with a proper setup JUST REJECT a froged 
message long before SpamAssassin - what a improvement


anyways, your whole DMARC stuff has *nothing* to do with what you 
responded original because it don't and can't change ANYTHING about spam 
from gmail accounts, they pass SPF/DKIM/DMARC


so what do you try to explain me?

scoll up in the thread where you startet to respond about DMARC and then 
try to get the context of the thread - hint: it has NOTHING to do with 
forged mail from whatever servers

Which milter?

If you're using MIMEDefang, you can bend the SA results whichever way
you like after the fact.

Otherwise, it looks like --virtual-config-dir should work.  See the
spamd man page for details on how to specify this.

-kgd

How about using "whitelist_to r...@example.tld", possibly with an
adapted negative score for the associated rule (which is not really
clear from the documentation)?

Kind regards,

Set your default required_score at the level your role accounts need and then 
change that default for accounts that have home directories?
