Hi Matt,
sorry for the long pause but during the weekend I didn't have enough spare
time to think about this thoroughly.
I don't think I mis-read your message but after reading your latest answer
I am not sure about anything anymore. This starts to get confusing.

Since the first day that I had installed SA on my servers I had
trusted_networks set to the IP of the machine where SA is running on.
So I thought that part of your mail can't be the solution.
Rich Puhek's answer calmed my fears because he said that my mail to the
list didn't get high scores. Well, so that leaves the (hopefully simpler)
problem that _my_ spamassassin scores mails from dialup IPs too high.
Maybe my problem (or our misunderstanding) is that SA is not running on my
local machine (condor) but on my smart host. We have several machines which
are acting as receiving mail servers and as smart hosts (using SMTP Auth).
All incoming mails from outside are piped through SA and local.cf contains
the IPs of all these servers like so:
trusted_networks host1.xx.yy.zz host2.xx.yy.zz host3.xx.yy.zz ...

Unfortunately not. I had my server(s) in trusted_networks from the
beginning but for example my own mails to the list get tagged this way:
X-Spam-Scores: AWL=-1.348,BAYES_00=-4.9,RCVD_IN_DYNABLOCK=2.599,
RCVD_IN_NJABL=0.1,RCVD_IN_NJABL_DIALUP=3.536,RCVD_IN_SORBS=0.1,
USER_IN_WHITELIST=-100
BTW that's why I was assuming that others see my mails like that, too.
If you could explain me why my SA acts like that I'd be really grateful.

Are you saying that SA only looks at the last hop before our trusted hosts???

I am really trying hard but the situation still doesn't make sense to me.
Please be so kind to try again.
Thanks,
Andy.
