I would like to increase the accuracy of my spamassassin rules...
First I have used kmail and piped my mail through the standard
/usr/bin/spamassassin without any switches if size of message is less than
250kb and my next rule filters the mail with a X-Spam-Status: YES header to
filter to a
Hi,
I just received an email from a friend that was marked as spam - though
it isn't spam. (I'm using spamassassin 2.61). here are the headers:

Content-Type: multipart/related;

Every now and then a spam slips through with no header markups. I finally
tracked some of these down and found that spamd took so long to finish
that spamc finally timed out. (In this case, 742 seconds.)

If it is not working for you, you can disable the test by setting its
score to 0:
SCORE MSGID_FROM_MTA_SHORT 0
in your user_prefs, or local.cf depending upon whether you're running
as a user or a sysadmin.

Check you have a perl module called DB_File installed. Without this,
sa-learn will quietly fail (unless you have debug switched on).

I installed Spamassassin from a RedHat RPM as a test a day or two ago,
and it's properly flagging about 1/3 of the incoming SPAM as such. I

In the last month my girlfriend and I have been getting a number of
spams which have been addressed To: me and Cc: to her. This seems to
be a new spammer trick. Use not just a database of email addresses
but a database of To: Cc: headers combined in an attempt to get
through people's filters.
Before you play with the settings, consider updating to the current
version of SpamAssassin. You're probably using 2.44; the current
version is 2.61. At this point, that much spam getting through would be
expected behavior.
