    How is the mail coming in; SMTP (your own mail server on the internal network), POP or IMAP? If it's coming in with SSL POPS or IMAPS, it's not possible to scan.

    Then change the SMTP scan strength to 4.5. Spam Blocker Lite -> Settings -> SMTP -> Strength -> Custom : 4.5

    Ah, yes Danp you are correct. So satisden are you using the default medium settings of 4.3 and quarantine but the emails are delivered to the recipient?

    If you set it to Low (5.0) only things scoring 5.0 or above should be quarantined/marked/etc.
