--- Begin Message --- Thanks for the help. I am useing CommuniGate ,clamav, and scanspam.sh to call spamc/spamd, in the rules I am checking for the SA header to prevent looping the message in the queue. Never thought that this would happen. If I read the docs right I can create a custom header message that I can have SA add to my messages to prevent message looping, right?

How can I make this go thourgh SA when it thinks it allready has????

Why wouldn't it go through SA?

SA doesn't have any built-in behaviors that will prevent it from
re-scanning a message.


I had a similar problem with clamassassin headers, so I had Postfix remove them so that my Maildrop filters would not be confused. I just set the clamassassin headers to IGNORE in Postfix's header_checks, IIRC.

Could something like this be done for Spamassassin's headers, by the MTA and would it solve the problem?

Why bother? SA isn't confused by them. No sane spamassassin setup would ever
have this problem. Period.

The problem lies in a user intentionally trying to bypass SA for already scanned mail. The fix lies in not doing something so foolish in the first place.

Fix the problem in the implementation, don't cover it up by modifying the input
data to hide the existence of this problem.
