Hello.  I have a question regarding weighting / scoring of the spam filters.  I can not find a place where you can change the weight / score given to the spam filter score of an incoming e-mail when the address the incoming e-mail is coming from has previously had email sent to it.  It appears that by default the score assigned is -25.  I would like to increase this to around - 50 or - 100, but I can not find where to make the change.  

I would be very appreciated if someone could let me know where I can modify this value.


Thank you,

Dustin

Dustin,

Whenever an out-bound email is sent from inside, that outside address will get a credit of -25. For example, if you send 4 emails to your friend at myfriend@gmail.com, that friend will get -100 (25 x 4) score for every incoming email. 

You can change this -25 by following the steps below. 

  • Locate $INSTALL_DIR\config folder
  • Look for server.properties. If it is missing, create a new file with this name. 
  • Add a new line with the following value:

    outbound.email.credit.score=50

  • The above line will change the default 25 to 50
  • Save the file 
  • Restart Xeams
