Because you have trained a lot of spam with that token. It really is that simple. > I would assume that the best this field could be set to is the same as > the "From" address, but this seems to make no difference to it's high > spam probablity ranking. 'header:Reply-To:1' says that there is exactly one "Reply-To" header; it does not say anything about its contents. You can stop SpamBayes generating that token by setting the 'safe_headers' option. e.g. add this to your configuration file: [Headers] safe_headers:abuse-reports-to,date,errors-to,from,importance,in-reply- to,message-id,mime-version,organization,received,return- path,subject,to,user-agent,x-abuse-info,x-complaints-to,x-face (That's all the defaults, except for reply-to. Note that it should be all one line). =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list (spambayes at python.org) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
