The CESmail server checking stops when it hits an IP that is listed in one of the bl's you have set your account to use. The listing of 204.127.131.124 was caused by you reporting your own mail server as the source of the spam you were reporting. SC picked the IP up as the source because of a dns/rdns mismatch on the AT&T server. You did not catch this and reported your server as the spam source 25 times over a few days. We did catch this on Friday and put the AT&T server in our trusted relay table, so spam you have reported since then has been getting to the right source.

SA must use some resources to do all that it does. Using SA on mail 'for no [good] purpose' which has been whitelisted is a waste of resources. You might think that it is possibly useful for something to be both whitelisted and scored, but I think the normal configuration should be for whitelisting to take place /first/ - before any other screening tools/rules, and if it is whitelisted nothing else happens. >> When your system gets/sees an item with a positive SA score, it is >> calling it spam. >> >> I don't have the 'answer' to your problem, but at least I understand >> it correctly now, whereas I didn't before. > > yes, you're exactly right... and _my_ machine has a procmail rule that > accepts any sender at disinfo.com without even looking at spam > assassin, so the fact that it's getting flagged by SA _at_ SC is the > problem... But, what is your machine doing even looking at the SA result if it has been whitelisted?

I think that if people, ie mail clients, were attentioning that it doesn't make any sense to be doing any more tests on mail after it is recognized as whitelisted, that someone might answer that.

So, the current explanation is that SC mail receives the item for you, finds it whitelisted, then proceeds to analyze it with SA, score it for/as spam, add the SPAM banner to the subject and put the Xline X-Spam-Flag: YES, further examine the Received headerlines for IPs for some unknown reason, and then put it into your SC mailbox. Whereupon your procmail fetches it and passes it to your mua and the mua sees the SPAM subject and Junk folders it. It would seem that the 'rule' when it arrives at SC would be to see if it is whitelisted and then stop processing anymore rules. Even in my simple little Outlook Express I can make message rules which are followed by 'stop processing any more rules'. It doesn't seem appropriate to be SA scoring and stamping headerlines and subject lines as spam and surveying the Received lines for ?something? when the item has already been whitelisted. Something is very strange about that. It's too bad this discussion or at least your presentation of the problem isn't taking place in the forum. I never go over there. You must have the same aversion or something. -- Mike Easter kibitzer, not SC admin From bite_me at its.fun Wed Feb 9 16:54:15 2005 From: bite_me at its.fun (Rev. Guido S.

Subfolders are very much a function of IMAP rather than POP, and SC supports IMAP and so does OE. You can read about IMAP in OE in Help under IMAP mail servers - described. The spamcop faq doesn't give much mail information to non-spamcopmail users, so I can't see any IMAP information there.

You can "download and remove" them by simply dragging and dropping them within Outlook Express from one of the subfolders within your IMAP account to any of your local folders. (You can do the same thing in Outlook, too, but this does not preserve all the headers). Once you have dragged the messages over to your local folders, they will be "marked as deleted" in your IMAP subfolder. You can then use the "purge delete messages" function (called simply "Purge" in OE) to remove them for good from your IMAP subfolder. > I just thought there might be some way to access the subfolders using POP > as well. No, POP is an old protocol that does not understand the whole concept of folders and will only get the messages from your inbox.

While the info posted above is correct by default, there is an option that makes it incorrect. I posted the following in "FAQ Entry: Webmail: Deleting and Moving Messages'at http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=3290 on Dec 26 2004 at 02:19 PM EST: This FAQ Entry concerns the "Deleting and Moving Messages" Options Page of SpamCop Webmail. It is accessed via Webmail by clicking the "Options" Link, scrolling down in the center "Mail Management" Column, and clicking the "Deleting and Moving Messages" Link, described as "Set preferences for what happens when you move and delete messages." There are three Checkboxes available on this Page: Return to the mailbox listing after deleting, moving, or copying a message?: If you are reading a message and you delete, move, or copy that message and this Checkbox is checked, you will then see the mailbox (Folder) listing containing that message, whereas if this Checkbox is not checked, you will then see the next message in that mailbox (Folder). When deleting messages, move them to your Trash folder instead of marking them as deleted?: This portion is divided into Checked and Unchecked sections: Checked: This is the default. Messages which are deleted from a particular mailbox/Folder go straight to your "Trash" mailbox/Folder. Any messages already marked/flagged as deleted cannot be: unmarked in Webmail because the "Undeleted" marking option is not present; purged in Webmail because the "Purge Deleted" Link is not present; and have their shown/hidden state changed because the "Show Deleted" and "Hide Deleted" Links are not present. To Empty Trash, either click the 'Empty Trash' link in the menubar" (if it is present because the following Checkbox is checked) or go to your "Trash" mailbox/Folder and click the "Empty Trash folder" Link (if it is present because the following Checkbox is not checked). Unchecked: This is optional and is more consistent with the ways that Eudora and OE operate, but I no longer recommend it due to the possibility of data loss (explained below). Messages which are deleted from a particular mailbox/Folder stay where they are, but get marked/flagged as deleted (struck out). Deleted messages can be: unmarked using the "Undeleted" marking option; purged (equivalent to "Empty Trash" for that mailbox/Folder) using the "Purge Deleted" Link; and shown or hidden using the "Show Deleted" and "Hide Deleted" Links (only one of these two Links shows at a time, depending on appropriateness). DATA LOSS WARNING: If you want to keep any deleted messages in a particular mailbox/Folder, DO NOT USE WEBMAIL TO DELETE OR MOVE (INCLUDING BY ACTION OF A FILTER) ANY MESSAGE IN THAT MAILBOX/FOLDER OR IT WILL MARK THAT MESSAGE AS DELETED AND THEN AUTOMATICALLY PURGE ALL OF THE DELETED MESSAGES IN THAT MAILBOX/FOLDER INSTEAD OF JUST MARKING THAT MESSAGE AS DELETED. I have learned this from experience the hard way, and I am not pleased. I consider this a bug, inconsistent with the implied "When deleting messages, ALWAYS mark them as deleted AND KEEP THEM IN THE MAILBOX/FOLDER instead of moving them to your Trash folder" unchecked status of this Checkbox. Display the 'Empty Trash' link in the menubar?: This is pretty self-explanatory, except that if you check this Checkbox and use keyboard shortcuts the "'Empty Trash' link in the menubar" will hijack Alt+E, leaving Alt+T for the "Report as Spam" Link. Also, the "Empty Trash folder" Link is only present in the "Trash" mailbox/Folder display if this Checkbox is not checked.
