Hi Everybody

I have a issue with Spamassassin plugin FreeMail.

The problem is that the this plugin add mail addresses from free emails providers in header of email.

For exsample:

- user aaa write mail to someone@mydomain.ch from aaa@gmail.com
- user bbb write mail to someone_else@mydomain.ch from bbb@gmail.com

in the header of the mail to someone_else@mydomain.ch is:

...
FREEMAIL_FROM 0.001 Sender email is commonly abused enduser mail provider (aaa[at]gmail.com) (bbb[at]gmail.com)
...


I think that this is from privacy perspective a very bad behavior and it should be disabled by default.

But I don't know, how I can do that.

I looked into the file "20_freemail.cf" but there is no way to disable this and it's obviously not the right place ("# Please don't modify this file ...") to do configuration changes.

Can someone help me with this issue?

Regards,

Martin
