[Bug 3008] New: Spamassassin does case-sensitive check to identify Received line, should be case-insensitive, so it does not recognize "received:" with lower-case "R"
http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3008
Summary: Spamassassin does case-sensitive check to identify
Received line, should be case-insensitive, so it does
not recognize "received:" with lower-case "R"
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 2.61
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P5
Component: spamassassin
AssignedTo: spamassassin-dev@incubator.apache.org
ReportedBy: dave230@burtonsys.com
CC: dave230@burtonsys.com
According to the RFCs, the keywords in an email header (such as "Received:") are
supposed to be case-insensitive. However, when I configured my mailserver to
add a "received: ..." header (i.e., with a lower-case "R"), spamassassin ignored
those received header lines. The result was lots of erroneous RCVD_IN_...
triggers, because spamassassin was finding the previous (that is, further down)
Received line.
This is a minor bug, because few mailservers generate header lines with
unconventional capitalization. But it is, nevertheless, a bug.
