On my system, that one gives:
X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-4.8 required=5.0 tests=AWL,BAYES_00,UPPERCASE_25_50 autolearn=no version=2.63
The differences are: 1) You have enabled some "online" tests with real time black lists (I think). 2) Your Bayes filter is not trainned very well, as it giving it a 44 percentage, and I'm not a spammer ;-)
You should retrain your bayessian filter with mail that you know it is spam. For that, I simply delete the '.spamassassin/bayes*' files, and then I run agan sa-learn; in my case, I do: And some 700 ham. time nice sa-learn --showdots --spam --mbox Mail/file/z_spam_unrecog && \ time nice sa-learn --rebuild
You'd have to change the mailbox location, at least, of course.

But i am still worried by the fact that bayesian checks are missing so often... -- /Rikard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rikard Johnels email : rikjoh@norweb.se Web : http://www.rikjoh.com Mob : +46 735 05 51 01 ------------------------ Public PGP fingerprint ---------------------------- < 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 >
