Two questions: 1) have you run spamassassin --lint after your upgrade? It could be that SA is choking on your config file further up and ditching it. 2) where is this declared? user_prefs, or a *.cf file in your site rules dir? 3) if user_prefs, do you use spamd? Do you have allow_user_rules set to 1 at the site rules level? > > Dave > > The rule in question is .... > > header DWR X-Spam-Bar =~ /\#\#\#\#\#\#\#\#\#/i > describe DWR Contains: Spam detected by our ISP > score DWR 5.50 > Looks perfectly fine to me. > > >
