			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I noticed a problem this morning with my Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server tagging a lot of new mail as spam in my Inbox by inserting &#8220;*** Junk Mail ***&#8221; into the Subject header when it quite clearly wasn&#8217;t. A bunch more was in my Junk folder.</p>
<p>Looking at the header revealed hits like:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>X-Spam-Status:</strong> No, score=10.994 tagged_above=2 required=12 tests=[AWL=-3.518, FH_DATE_PAST_20XX=10.357, FH_RELAY_NODNS=1.451, FM_FORGED_GMAIL=0.622, FRT_PROFILE2=1.981, HTML_MESSAGE=0.001, RDNS_NONE=0.1]</p></blockquote>
<p>Thinking FH_DATE_PAST_20XX=10.357 looked a bit suspect, I did some Googling and found the following blog entry:</p>
<p><a title="Mac OS X Server 10.6 Y2K10 mail bug" href="http://serverfault.com/questions/98723/workaround-spamassassin-y2k10-bug-mac-os-x-server" target="_blank">http://serverfault.com/questions/98723/workaround-spamassassin-y2k10-bug-mac-os-x-server</a></p>
<p>I went with Option 2 — modifying the rule configuration file such the 2010 isn&#8217;t perceived to be so far in the future as to be spam</p>
<p>Substitute</p>
<blockquote><p>header   FH_DATE_PAST_20XX      Date =~ /20[<strong>1</strong>-9][0-9]/ [if-unset: 2006]</p></blockquote>
<p>with</p>
<blockquote><p>header   FH_DATE_PAST_20XX      Date =~ /20[<strong>2</strong>-9][0-9]/ [if-unset: 2006]</p></blockquote>
<p>Unfortunately that didn&#8217;t resolve the issue for me.</p>
<p>On further searching through the various configuration files on the server, it looks like</p>
<p>/private/etc/mail/spamassassin/00_FVGT_File001.cf</p>
<p>is the file you want to edit.</p>
<p><strong>[UPDATE:]</strong> yes, updating /private/etc/mail/spamassassin/00_FVGT_File001.cf and restarting the mail service appears to have resolved my issue.</p>
