Hi Merle!

It looks like you are using Declude and Message Sniffer with your incoming anti spam gateway. At first glance I'm not sure why your primary server is not honoring the Declude scores from your gateway, but if you want to email me directly with RDP access to your server and the URL, username and password for your SM admin interface, I will be happy to take a peek and see what I can find. Once I do that, I can share the answer here in the forums with hopes it can help others. I believe you have my email address because we have worked together in the past before, but if not, it is in my signature below. Thanks!
