outlook 2007 "Test" email scores 30+Outlook 2007 for most of the clients under our domain are now having outgoing emails blocked by Spam Assassin, which our ISP uses. This started in late September (Outlook/MS update??). Simple Text emails with "hello" or "test" get scored over 30. If I switch the users over to "windows mail" vs. "Outlook" We have no problems but this is unacceptable, outlook is our standard. So the question is what is Outlook 2007 doing to the outbound mail to cause it to be scored so high with Spam Assassin. We are ready to move our mail accounts to a different ISP!@!@ Any help is appreciated.

Try to ask your ISP's tech support to send you debugging info on some of your emails. Kind regards, --Toni++ |

Thank you for your interest and support. I will keep pushing our ISP to use this forum for a resolution.

Second, SpamAssassin doesn't generally scan outbound mail. Your ISP has majority screwed a pooch, and that has nothing to do with SpamAssassin. > (Outlook/MS update??).

Well, they are from LookOut clients, so spam probability seems very hog to me :p > So the question is what is Outlook 2007 doing to the outbound mail > to cause it to be scored so high with Spam Assassin. Probably your ISP has some extremely poorly written and badly implemented and completely urn-thought-out custom rules that are screwing things up. > We are ready to move our mail accounts to a different ISP! Sounds like a great idea to me. |

You only sent an obfuscated log about an email conversation with your ISP, but not the offending message, which is crucial in determining what might have gone awry on SA's side, if anything.
