[Bug 5942] vbounce false positive

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5942





--- Comment #1 from Lee Maguire <le...@hexkey.co.uk>  2008-07-17 00:52:17 PST ---

This is a serious bug with 20_vbounce.cf

  # __AUTO_GEN_AS can appear in non-bounce mails with __XM_VBULLETIN,
  # or with X-Cron-Env headers, so exclude those cases
 header __AUTO_GEN_AS    Auto-Submitted =~ /auto-(?:generated|replied)/

 Auto-Submitted can appear in *any* mail - not just bounce messages.  It's
primarily used to indicate that auto replies such as Out-of-office rules do not
trigger - but I also use it in my personal mail filtering.  It should be
considered good practice, but this rule seems to discourage that.

Also "Auto-Submitted: auto-generated" appearing in bounce messages is
considered a bug.

See RFC 3834
