Dear Colleagues,
Why does SpamAssassin (Debian 10, SpamAssassin 3.4.2) not count an SPF
check fail as a symptom of spam? That's what I see in the spam report:
0.0 SPF_FAIL SPF: sender does not match SPF record (fail)
No spam points for an SPF fail? And it's even a hard fail (a "-all") in
this case.
I can probably bump up the score for SPF_FAIL but would like to know
first why it is a 0.0 by default. This was probably someone's
well-grounded decision?
