[Bug 5316] New: Genuine Hotmail emails being marked highly due to FORGED_HOTMAIL_RCVD test.

http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5316

           Summary: Genuine Hotmail emails being marked highly due to
                    FORGED_HOTMAIL_RCVD test.
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.1.7
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P5
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: n.doyle@lboro.ac.uk


Hi,

We are getting several reports here of people being sent genuine emails from
Hotmail addresses and their emails marked as Spam & filtered accordingly due to
the additional score from the FORGED_HOTMAIL_RCVD test.

I understand that this has been reported previously but can't see a solution
which would relate to our specific case. I have attached a message for your
information along with the results of our spam score test.

I hope you can help!

Kind regards

Another real Hotmail message tagged as forged

Same problem, slightly different headers. I have a local rule that gives extra
weight to anything claiming to be from Hotmail, but that's not related to this
bug.

Your attachment is a Microsoft Word document :-(

But I confirm what you find: most or all hotmail mail is marked with
FORGED_HOTMAIL_RCVD these days.  Maybe as a result of a restructuring in their
network.
