Scor

Assign a score (number of points for a stroke) to a given test. Scores can be positive or negative


natural numbers or integers. "SYM-BOLIC_TEST_NAME" is the symbolic name used by SpamAssassin

for that test; for example, 'FROM_ENDS_IN_NU'. If only one valid score is listed, then that score is always used for the test. If four valid scores are listed, then the score used depends on how SpamAssassin is being used. The first score is used when Bayes testing and the network is disabled.

The second score is used when Bayes is disabled, but network testing is enabled. The third score is used when Bayes is enabled and network testing is disabled. The fourth score is used when Bayes is enabled and network testing is enabled. Setting a rule score to 0 will disable the rule from running.

1. Click "Show Additional Configuration" under "Additional Configuration" to continue.



2. Click "Configure Calculated Spam Score Settings" under the "Block list" category to continue.




3. Click "Add New "score" item" to add and Remember to click "Update Score Options"
