Spamassassin Rules

[Michael Cavanagh <mi...@5cs.com>]

Lately, I am getting lots of similar emails that I want caught as Spam 
but are not.  These are like:
    Subject:  Pharmacy  -- where the word pharmacy is missed spelled in 
many different methods.
    Subject: ... My Name ....
    Subject:  ... My home address ....

I send these to Bayes for learning nightly, but they are still not flagged.
Are there rules that should catch this type of Spam?  Do not I need 
change some configuration info?  Am I doing something wrong?

I am currently running versions: Spamassassin: 3.0.4; Mimedefang: 2.52; 
Perl: 5.8.3

Thanks,
Mike

Yes.  And probably yes.

If you don't have network rules enabled you should enable them.  The 
URIBL-type rules will probably catch the vast majority of this junk.  Most 
of the mis-spelled pharma stuff I get scores around 50.
