KAM_DMARC_REJECT Score not working

[MiamiJack]

Hello All,

I have the KAM rules set within SA for my PMG.
We have been seeing a lot of rejections:

KAM_DMARC_REJECT 6 DKIM has Failed or SPF has failed on the message and the domain has a DMARC reject policy

Weather that is blocking legitimately or not, I'm not questioning, but because of all the false positives, I basically added to my config:
/etc/mail/spamassassin/custom.cf

score KAM_DMARC_REJECT 0

Ran
systemctl restart pmg-smtp-filter

This is still blocking emails with a score of 6.
I rebooted the server, retyped the settings etc, with no luck always scoring 6.

I can find the score in KAM.cf located in /usr/share/spamassassin-extra/kam_sa-channels_mcgrail_com but I know that is NOT the right place for me to change it, and when the rules get updated, my change would be overwritten.

Any suggestions / Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Hi.
As i understrand, custom.cf work only for new rules.
You can change SA rules cost via GUI. Configuration -> Spam Detector -> Custom Scores
It creates pmg-scores.cf file in same directory, that will change rule cost.

In most SA installs the local.cf does allow you to change rule scoring, but I will try your method, which does make it easier to visualize the customized scores. Will try... Thanks.

I tried putting the score as described and still got messages rejected ad soring 6.. not good.

Can you share content of created /etc/mail/spamassassin/pmg-scores.cf file?
And after adding did you push apply custom score button to reload mail filters?
