[Bug 5173] New: setting SCORE values has no effect

http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5173

           Summary: setting SCORE values has no effect
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.1.6
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Score Generation
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: gejzer@ibt.com.pl


I have set up custom settings for scores in the /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
file:

score BAYES_99 10
score AWL       -10

and of course restarted the spamassassin.
When email arrives, these custom settings seem to be ignored:

...
-0.8 AWL                    AWL: From: address is in the auto white-list
...

I run spamd with these parameters:
-i 0.0.0.0 -A x.x.x.x -u spam -H /home/users/spam -x --timeout-child 3600

thank you very much for quick response & explanation,
i would have never thought that AWL is so much different
from 'regular' tests :)

AWL computes a different score for each message, using the algorithm described
in the wiki page http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/AutoWhitelist so any
setting of a single fixed score in a configuration file is ignored.

If someone wants to file a bug report that 'score AWL 0.8' does not result in a
lint error, feel free. I don't feel strongly enough that that behavior is a bug
to open the bug report myself.

In any case, the behavior is as designed, so I'm closing this bug as WORKSFORME.
