View Full Version : Problems with Spamassassin

Greetings,

I'm having trouble with my spamassassin configuration...

One of my clients just upgraded their internet connection, and suddenly they've starting having their inter-office email returned or marked as spam by our mail server.

Here is an example of the headers from an email that was marked as spam. It appears that the problem is that spamassassin is recognizing their IPs as dynamic IP addresses even though they are static.

However, I don't believe that this is correct behavior, even for dynamic addresses... lowering the spam score, also, would unleash a flood of spam to all of my users (I have already tried this).

Additionally, of about 20 active email domains on this box, this is the only domain having issues.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks!

Caio

Please try this:
postconf -e 'smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = yes'
/etc/init.d/postfix restart

to me it seems that either/both
* that the sending email server is not quite configured correctly and a name is not attached to the ip address

* the new information did not propagate yet

Falko,

I have tried this, and will post back with my results.

Thank You!

Chipsafts,

In my case, both the sending & receiving email server are actually the same server. The user is simply sending a mail to another user on her domain.
