Spamassassin never runs any normal rule (one which appears in the hit list) with a score of 0. This is intended to be a useful way for users to completely disable rules that are causing too much overhead on their systems. Try a score of -0.001 instead. The only rules that get run with no score are those starting with a double underscore in the name. By default these rules run but have no score, but also never appear in the hits list, and are used as sub-parts of meta rules. Even with these, last I checked, if you explicitly declared a score of zero for one of these rules it would disable it. > >
