analysing email header

[robertboyl]

Hi, everyone

Congrats on EFA!

1) How can I assess for what reason an email got a high score in EFA, such as the one below? Can I add extra info in headers, to help understand why email was marked or not as spam? or do I need to check some logs server side (dont have access to server as root)?

X-emailsystem-SpamCheck: spam
X-emailsystem-SpamScore: 6

2) How can I help EFA and report spams?

Thanks.

If you open the mail in the webgui it will show you the reasons

Hi

@darky83
I think he don't want to use Mailwatch/webgui, just the X-header information, which could have more informations as "Found to be clean" for a mail with a score of "3.5".

@robertboyl
EFA the project or EFA the/your appliance?

Hi. Thanks, guys. Yes, on the header would be ideal as I dont have root access, just wanted to be able to comprehend reasons for EFA spam score, as I analyse other things in the header such as spamassassin, bayes, other systems my provider has, but EFA I dont get much details.

Its the appliance.

Thanks

Try this...


/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf:

Code: Select all

Always Include SpamAssassin Report = yes

Code: Select all

sudo service MailScanner restart

[robertboyl]

Thanks. Then it will include the SA part of scoring only? and the other modules EFA has?

Tks

[shawniverson]

I believe this will add the SA scores to the header. Try it and let us know.

Thanks, ends up my sysadmin prefers not to add, as he says it would add too much info in the header, we already have spamassassin, bayes etc in header.

If you can, perhaps consider being able to add to header in a summarized way all tests, would be neat, perhaps I can convince my sysadmin to enable it.

Thanks a lot!
