Dodosmail Being Blocked By Spamassassin

[KingDwight]

Hello kids...

 

I've seen some of you recommend using Dodosmail for formmailing as TCH no longer allows cgiemail (what a shame... very easy although I understand very non-secure). So I did the smart thing and followed some of your advice. Too bad I'm not too smart because it took me about an hour to figure out that the reason why I wasn't receiving and emails from my form was because SpamAssassin was blocking it.

 

Here is why it was being blocked:

1.4 MISSING_MIMEOLE Message has X-MSMail-Priority, but no X-MimeOLE

 

I saw this when I enabled SpamAssassin but disabled spambox.

 

Anyway... Does anyone know how to fix Dodosmail so it doesn't go past my set required score for SpamAssassin? I know I can raise my required score level to something slightly higher but the score I have it set to seems to be working fine for everything else. I'm hoping there is something I can do to the dodosmail.php file or to the form to get it to function better. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks...

Why not just white list the address for the mailing list. Spam Assassin will then just pass it through.

Hey Bruce...

 

I thought of that, but the email address in the from field is a value that I cannot predict. In my testing I found that the From field in the email I received had the same value as the Email Address field from the form on my website.

 

I just figured someone may have come across this and had made a fix to either the php file or the form in order to circumvent this.

 

Let me know if you have any other ideas....

 

 

Thanks...

So I think I found the answer to this thing. It's not something I'm guaranteeing here but it seems to have worked for me even though I can't explain 100% of what I did.

 

I went into the php file that I uploaded to my site and added this line:

 

$headers .= "X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1106\r\n";

 

in the section where all the other $headers are and it seems to have liked it. It no longer raises the score by 1.4

 

I hope this helps anyone else out there who may come across this in the future.

 

And thanks once again Bruce for your help. Without you and the other boys this place wouldn't be the same. It's good to know that you're out there helping us out. Keep up the awesome work. And remember there's people out there that appreciate your help.
