Debug info of example email, syslog output and cli processing. 

When installed on centos-5 with spamass-milter-0.3.2-1 and spamassassin-3.2.5 a lot of emails are noted as UNPARSEABLE_RELAY.  

This results in a very low hit rate.  I have recompiled spamass-milter with this patch:-

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=510665

I have taken the email that has made it through the filter and then run it from the CLI and the UNPARSEABLE_RELAY issue doesn't not appear and the mail is correctly identified as spam.

Does anyone else run SA on Centos-5 x86_64 with spamass-milter or have  any experience with this?  

I used to run this same combination on centos-4 i386 and it worked very well. The milter was the same version, but SA was 3.1

It looks like that the issue might lie with the milter and how it creates the headers passed to SA.

I don't know how to get an accurate copy of exactly what is being received by SA from the milter - is there some debug I can use to pull this out so I can compare the header passed to SA with the header in the email after processing by sendmail and MDA?

thanks in advance
Mark.

According to the debian bug report, this is a bug with spamass-milter generating a broken fake header, and not a SA bug.

Closing. Not SA.
