Here's how this works if I'm in fact correct. There are two scoring
columns in Declude, the first is scored if a test fails, the second is
scored if a test is not failed. It sounds like the SKIPIFWEIGHT works on
the cumulative value of the first column only
This is exactly how it works.

I'm confused. And it's always been a subject that confuses me.
How about an example...
Mail fails SBL for 100 weight.
Mail fails revdns-whitelist filter which adds a -200 weight.
So net weight at this time is -100.
Next filter has a skipifweight 75. Would the filter get skipped or processed?

Are you saying that SKIPIFWEIGHT completely ignores any test that
passes a negative valu
The docs imply that SKIPIFWEIGHT is only usable in the actual filter file.
Correct.
Can it also be used in the global.cfg file?
No, it only has meaning in the filter files.

I think the question revolves specifically around when the negative
weights for Declude's built-in tests and possibly things like fromfiles,
spamdomains, and ipfiles are deducted from the weight used to calculate
SKIPIFWEIGHT. If these are only deducted after the filters have run, it
would be
Scott,
I'm personally only crediting one point for nNOLEGITCONTENT and
nIPNOTINMX, the rest are in custom filters, so this hasn't seemed to
cause me a noticeable issue, but it is something that I inquired about
many months ago after someone else reported the issue and you indicated

Currently I have 1 IMail 8.1x server with 12 virtual domains. Each domain
has a dedicated IP address. I currently have 3 backup mail servers, one
local, and 2 on other ISP links. Currently each backup mail server is
running MS SMTP using 1 IP address.
My MX records look like this

Its not a bug but its definately a gotcha that will bug you if you arent
careful :)
I recently created a filter test called HEADERS that checks for spoofing of
my own systems as well as for defunct domains and a few other header
specific tests, it catches alot of junk with little overhead so I
I could understand ignoring negative weights for filters and fromfiles to a
point, but negative weights for other tests should be included. In the case

Scott, can the NOGEGITCONTENT and IPNOTINMX scoring occur earlier before the
filters, as expected?
No. It isn't expected. :)

What this means is if you have filters say with SKIPIFWEIGHT 35, a message

We've been calling it a 'combo' filter. You need to set up two filters,
one that is non-scoring that pre-qualifies the ALLRECIPS, and the second
that only runs if the first filter is tripped. In your first filter, do
the following:
ALLRECIPS 0 CONTAINS @domain1.com
ALLRECIPS 0 CONTA
I have a filter that I've built for one of my customers that allows them to
whitelist items JUST for their domain.
The way that I do this is to add the following lines to their whitelist
filter:
ALLRECIPSEND NOTCONTAINS@domain1.
ALLRECIPSEND NOTCONTAINS@domain2.
