Hi

Happy new Year to all HLUG people !

Just thought I'd let you know that there is an issue with Spamassassin using
a FH_DATE_PAST_20XX rule that adds 3.6 to your mails scoring for emails
supposed to be in the future, but now are not. If you have a threshold of
spam scoring of 4, then you are most of the way there with this rule.

You may want to remove this rule from your scoring for now.

See http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/secu/print.php/3857126,  bottom of
page.

We had this problem, so its obviously a potential issue to watch out for.

Julian
