local rule doesn't hit
Hi,
I am pretty new at writing local rules, and since we've been getting
a lot of targeted phishing emails i've been writing some rules to stop
them ( running them thru the public corpus's after i write them )
I have a rule body __LOCAL_IT_SPOOF_1 m'account
(?:verification|expire|detail|expiration)'i
and the message which i am trying to match is (this is just a snip)
Dear Subscriber,

so from my thinking that should match the bold section...spamassasin -D
does't show the rule being hit at all...
any ideas?

Thanks,

I know they are indirect, in debug mode it shows __ rules that hit as
well. other non-scored rules do hit.

the __ rules are indirect and not scored. You can use them in meta rules.
remove those __ at begin and see if they hit
