This looks more like you are filtering with spamassassin on your end. That is a good practice in general. But I believe your headers are replacing any headers that would be in there from the list processor. In particular USER_IN_WHITELIST looks like a personal rule that you have in place to whitelist the mailing list. You would have to split off a copy of the debian list mail into a non-filtered folder and look at the headers there in order to prove to yourself that it is filtered through SA by someone other than yourself. (And the absense of those headers does not mean that it was not filtered and those headers stripped off again afterward.) Bob
