Subject: [exim] Spam slipping through exiscan?
Hello, I am using an acl in exiscan to reject spam at smtp time.
Everything works great most of the time, but occasionaly a message or
two gets through even though the header clearly shows that the message
was scored as spam.

The only thing that appears to be common with these messages that get
through is that the message is addressed to an email address that
forwards to another local address (i.e., domains@??? is a
forwarder to steve@???). And, the messages in question appear
to be addressed to multiple recipients. Anyway, I am stumped. My exim
acl works fine 90% of the time, but it's just a few messages that get
through... And you will see that I'm dropping messages with a score of
7+ and the message that got through was scored 15.8.

I'd appreciate some help. Thanks very much.

Steve

Here is my exim acl:

#!!# ACL that is used after the DATA command
check_message:
require verify = header_sender

  # Reject messages with a SpamAssassin score >7
  deny     message = Rejected: Flagged as spam (score = $spam_score).
           spam = nobody:true
           condition = ${if >{$spam_score_int}{70}{1}{0}}


accept
