It is possible for spam to be captured on the way in but not on the way out in a forward if the content that caused the capture is in a header or part of the message that was modified in the forwarding process. For example, an experimental IP header?
Message Sniffer doesn't act differently based on the direction of the message - it simply responds with a result when called by the email server.
Hope this helps,

Ok...I released some spam, that sniffer caught, that was addressed to me. I then forwarded the spam to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not one of them was caught by sniffer even though they were already caught once coming in.
Is there a setting, that I am missing, to scan outbound email for Spam? Sniffer had been catching outbound spam email up until about 5-7 days ago.
My rulebase is current...

Is it possible the rulebase file hadn't been updated on your system?
Change rates were up a bit over the weekend preceded by a dip when we had our Primary DB outage Friday evening - perhaps these fell into that gap?

I noticed today, after forwarding 22 spams I received over the weekend, that none of the spams got "caught" in sniffer. Usually I will have at least 50-75% caught because the rule base had been updated since I received the spam.
Any ideas?
