odd scores..

I was checking the logs on our qmail (4.9) box running SA (2.60) and
in the logs I am getting a large number of messages with score (?/?)
Oct	14	10:47:56	smtpgate1	qmail-scanner[83917]:	Clear:RC:0(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):SA:0(?/?):
Oct	14	10:50:03	smtpgate1	qmail-scanner[84606]:	Clear:RC:0(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):SA:0(?/?):
Oct	14	10:55:24	smtpgate1	qmail-scanner[86581]:	Clear:RC:0(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):SA:0(?/?):
Oct	14	10:55:31	smtpgate1	qmail-scanner[86673]:	Clear:RC:0(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):SA:0(?/?):
Oct	14	10:57:27	smtpgate1	qmail-scanner[87294]:	Clear:RC:0(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):SA:0(?/?):
Oct	14	10:58:07	smtpgate1	qmail-scanner[87519]:	Clear:RC:0(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):SA:0(?/?):

trying to do a google search with (?/?) doesn't work well.. any ideas
as to why I may be getting those?

Hi,

Files bigger than the max-scan size ?  Default is 256k I believe.

I find the usual cause of this is that the message is larger than the 
max specified for spamassassin to scan.  I think the default is 250k. 
If it doesnt scan the message cause its larger than this value, then it 
cant possibly determine a score for it.
