Content Filtering somtime work and sometime it doesn't
Problem reported by Peter Verzoni - 6/24/2017 at 1:52 PM

The content filter works sometime and sometime it doesn't.
The header 1 was tagged as spam high as per the  intended behavior (plus the message was rerouted as intended). The header 2 and header 3 were delivered to the user mail box how they made it through is a mistery.
To help with this, we modified all of our content filters so that every filter has an additional action of adding a custom header appropriate for each rule.  The format of the custom header is “X-RVA-”.  We also added an additional filtering rule to the bottom of the list so that a custom header will be added to all messages that make it through all of the other filters.  That filter should add the header “X-RVA-Passed-All-Content-Filters: True”.  As you can see, there is no “X-RVA” header of any type in Header 2 & 3 which conclude that the messages were not tested against any of our content filtering rules.
We are using SmarterMail Enterprise 15.6 version.

@Ronald, these Content Filter are based upon results of Spam Filtering.

If score goes above 30 then mails should be tagged as Spam High and should be delivered to particular email address.

But what we can see is that multiple mails got score above 30 but never got filtered.

While checking logs we have found below

[2017.06.09] 01:47:32 [95894] Spam check results: [_SPF: Pass], [FIVE-TEN: passed], [HOSTKARMA - BLACKLIST: passed], [HOSTKARMA - BROWNLIST: passed], [HOSTKARMA - WHITELIST: passed], [SORBS - DYNAMIC IP: passed], [SORBS - PROXY: passed], [SORBS - SOCKS: passed], [SPAMCOP: passed], [SPAMHAUS - PBL: passed], [SPAMHAUS - PBL2: passed], [SPAMHAUS - SBL: passed], [UCEPROTECT LEVEL 1: passed], [UCEPROTECT LEVEL 2: passed], [UCEPROTECT LEVEL 3: passed], [_REVERSEDNSLOOKUP: failed], [_BAYESIANFILTERING: failed], [_COMMTOUCH: 30,Confirmed], [_DK: None], [_DKIM: None], [BONDEDSENDER: passed], [SORBS: passed], [SPAMHAUS SBL+XBL: passed]
