It means that the call to SA timed out and the message does not appear in MailScanner's cache (if it is MailScanner, of course). I would suggest that you save the full email, and run it manually through SA using the command line tool, something like: spamassassin --test-mode < file_that_contains_the_email_you_saved.eml This will show you which rules spamassassin will score on.

Rules in local.cf are not read?
Hi all, I'm using MailScanner with SpamAssassin, and I'm using the "Cache SpamAssassin Results = yes" option. Since I've enabled this option, I'm seeing that some spam messages pass through, although the subject or body match one or more own-written rules in my local.cf file. If I look at the header of these messages, they have: X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (not cached, timed out) If I save the message and try "spamassassin -D < mymessage" it is correctly detected as spam, also against the rules in local.cf file. I know that SpamAssassin sometimes times out on network checks, but aren't the rules in the local.cf file read anyway? Thanks in advance for your help.
