> I think many people run with tag at 5.0 and discard at 10.0 I should have mentioned that we are running amavisd-new. I thought that was the de facto way of integrating spamassassin into a mail gateway, but reading this list reveals that most people probably doesn't do that. Makes me wonder if I am doing the wrong thing?
Amavisd-new has further settings as to thresholds, and these are the ones I put in as of today (after reading other peoples tips here, thank you everybody): $sa_tag_level_deflt = -10; # add spam info headers if at, or above that level $sa_tag2_level_deflt = 5.2; # add 'spam detected' headers at that level $sa_kill_level_deflt = 6.2; # triggers spam evasive actions (e.g. blocks mail) $sa_dsn_cutoff_level = 7.4; # spam level beyond which a DSN is not sent Does above scores make sense? -- Lars
