Author postfix + amavis: force header + spamcheck

Hi all,

I have a Debian mail server running postfix + amavisd-new and
spamassassin. Configuration is almost the same as advocated on
http://www.howtoforge.com/amavisd_p..._debian_ubuntu, but I wasn't
able to force amavisd to add a header to mails and to enable spam
checking at all.

Amavisd generally works: it checks incoming emails and moves banned
contents to /var/lib/amavis/virusmails/
To force addition of a header I set
$sa_tag_level_deflt = -999;
in /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user
But this setting doesn't change anything, i.e. no header gets added.
Adjusting the loglevel in this file works (so this is the right file ;)
and the sa_tag_level_deflt is not overwritten by any other file from
/etc/amavis/conf.d/
@bypass_spam_checks_acl is commented out.

Any ideas what I'm missing here?

Thanks,
Andreas

Just in case somebody runs into the same problem:
Forgot to mention that this server serves multiple domains. As luck
would have it, I only checked the headers from one of those domains.
After adding the appropriate domains to local_domains_acl everything
worked like a charm.
