Bayes won't start to work until it has seen 200 examples of ham and 200 examples of spam. > "is the bayes-db of this user *realy* used at scan time" > how do i check that? > When its working you'll see BAYES_nn rules firing. > I use the procemail to pass all mail through spam assassin. > I use default ubuntu setup with Razors enabled. > It does catches spam but not the one i attached in original post. > > example mail sa headers: > > X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.4.0 (2014-02-07) on > ip-10-254-37-89.us-west-2.compute.internal > X-Spam-Level: *** > X-Spam-Status: No, score=3.1 required=5.0 > tests=BAYES_00,HTML_MESSAGE, > RAZOR2_CF_RANGE_51_100,RAZOR2_CF_RANGE_E8_51_100,RAZOR2_C > HECK,SPF_HELO_PASS, > SPF_PASS,URIBL_BLOCKED,URIBL_DBL_SPAM autolearn=no > autolearn_force=no > version=3.4.0 > As others have said, URIBL-BLOCKED shows that the number of BL lookups from all the people using whatever DNS server you're using exceeds the free usage count for the BL server. BL servers count messages from a particular DNS and don't know/can't find out how many people are using a particular DNS server to do BL lookups. To get round that you need your own DNS server, configured the do recursive lookups and NOT to forward queries to any other DNS server. So, set up your own recursive, non-forwarding DNS server on the host where you're running SA. Configure that host to pass all DNS queries to your new DNS server by configuring /etc/resolv.conf as I and others have described. If you don't understand how to install and configure a DNS server and prefer printed material to online documents, get the O'Reilly book "DNS and BIND". Martin
