Dear community,


unfortunately I did not found in the documentation. Maybe I missed something, but I did not found it. Incoming mails which we are recognizing as spam, will be tagged with "X-Spam: Yes" from our email server. Normal emails will be filtered by a rule and moved into an JUNK Folder of the user mailbox.


But after the mail was delivered via Sympa (currently version 6.2.70) the X-Spam header is missing. Which means, that the spam can not be recognized by the user Junk filter rule and will be delivered to the inbox. And not to the Junk folder.


How can I preserve the X-SPAM header in the mail?



Best, Tobias
