Thanks for your reply. Glad to read you were able to solve your problem.
Rules are documented in the files Larry told you, maybe in another
directory, but you can search for the filenames. Do not change the
score in this file, because this files will be replaced after an update.
You can create new score in the file you create your own rules (because
I don't use the plugin I don't know it's location). Simple add a line:
score BAYES_00 -4
to overwrite score for BAYES_00.
I recommend you to check and/or create a SPF record or DKIM and reject
mails from your domain(s) from outside your mailservers to protect you
from this spam. Some time ago same sender address was often used, with
SPF/DKIM it's it is now rarely used. Maybe you also would put your
mailservers and not your mail adress to the welcome list. There's an
ALL_TRUSTED rule if mail is sent from localhost or networks listed in an
trusted_networks.
Best regards,
Juerg
