I am using SA in combination with mimedefang over many years very

My environment SpamAssassin version 3.3.2 running on Perl version
5.12.4 on Sparc Solaris 11.2
My local rules are saved in /etc/mail/sa-mimedefang.cf
These days I tried to implement a new rule. It should trigger if
within the received header line a text “verify=OK” can be found. This
is the rule I made:
header LOCAL_VRY_OK Received =~ /verify=ok/i
score LOCAL_VRY_OK -2.0
describe LOCAL_VRY_OK starttls_verify_is_OK
This rule is never triggered, even if this text is available. I know
this because I add a X-Spam-Score header line to each e-mail, which
lists all triggered rules.
I saved such an e-mail ( just the header ) and run:
spamassassin -x -p /etc/mail/sa-mimedefang.cf -D < email.txt
Here I can see, that this rule is activated. So the rule can’t be
written so bad.
I made several experiments but couldn’t find a solution. My question
why is it not recognized if executed “on the fly” by mimedefang for
incoming e-mails ?
Not to say, that other local rules in my config file are executed
properly.
Any hints and tips are welcome.
Have you restarted MD because most likely it is using the API and
doesn't load the rules each time it runs but rather only at start (or
when a child reaches the maximum execution limit)?
