Have you specified

whitelist_bounce_relays      hostname_of_your_MTA

in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf ?

It works on my site.

Quote from 20_vbounce.cf

----
# You should also add 'whitelist_bounce_relays' lines, describing the names of
# your own outgoing mail relays, like so:
#
#   whitelist_bounce_relays       dogma.boxhost.net
#
# This is used to 'rescue' legitimate bounce messages that were generated in
# response to mail you really *did* send.  If you don't do this, the
# "BOUNCE_MESSAGE" rule will not fire.  See 'perldoc VBounce.pm' for more
# details.

To my understanding, once you add whitelist_bounce_relays, it should fire.

I didn't, I do now, no difference (restarted spamd of course).

man page says that's an option anyways.

Thanks for replying though.
