Email shows up in bulk folders

No idea why yahoo would treat them differently - you'd have to check with yahoo.

With regard to the email tagging, you should make sure that you've upgraded the MailScanner installations with our free script to the latest releases. You should always get the MailScanner header lines if you have the default MailScanner configuration setup and have set values for the header records in MailScanner.conf correctly (i.e. alphanumerics only).

 

I've been advised by Hotmail that this could be the reason my IP address is repeatedly blocked by them, so I URGENTLY need to stop these headers being injected for outbound mail (they're a nonsense for outbound anyway to be honest - anyone can forge them to try to fool the remote ends spam scanning software into believing its been checked... Which is why Hotmail is objecting I suspect)

If you can tell me how to disable these headers, and the X-Anti-Abuse headers I'd very much appreciate it!

Cheers,

Actually I've changed my mind about the X-Anti-Abuse headers after reading about formmail holes and Bcc headers and such like. So I'll keep those.

I've got rid of the MailScanner headers by changing them to X-Ignore in the MailScanner frontend settings. Now I just get an X-Ignore: ignore header, which is fine, if they block me because of that then fool them.

However, I am still seeing, on outbound messages, a header saying X-Spam-Status: no - even though I've configured MailScanner to not scan for spam outbound. Adding such a header is just ridiculous anyway, it's not up to the judgement of my server to determine if a message is spam anyway, which is why so many antispam solutions (including SpamAssassin) will increase the spam score of a message that comes into a system with that header already set.

How do I stop the X-Spam-Status: no header from being added to outbound mails please?
