I’ve been getting a number of threads lately that appear to have originated
on the newsgroup side, but the original message does not appear there. Is
there a problem with the news gateway?

From the logs it looks as if both sides are working, but it’s not as
easy to check as I’d like as I’m traveling at the moment.
Which direction appears not to be working?
Cheers

I don’t know if it’s related, but I’ve been receiving several mails
from ruby-talk-admin titled “Fml status report (ruby-talk ML)” and
telling me that SpamAssassin has rejected some of my messages to the
list. However, these are all old messages which were accepted at the
time are and in the archive ([ruby-talk:78044], [ruby-talk:78073],
[ruby-talk:78453]).
Could SpamAssassin be blocking messages from the newsgroup?
Here is what it finds suspicious about my messages:
SPAM: -------------------- Start SpamAssassin results ----------------------
SPAM: This mail is probably spam. The original message has been altered
SPAM: so you can recognise or block similar unwanted mail in future.
SPAM: See Apache SpamAssassin: Welcome for more details.
SPAM:
SPAM: Content analysis details: (5 hits, 5 required)
SPAM: Hit! (0.5 points) Possibly-forged ‘Received:’ header found
SPAM: Hit! (2.5 points) Date: is in the future or unparseable
SPAM: Hit! (2.0 points) Received via a relay in relays.osirusoft.com
SPAM: [RBL check: found 210.136.87.216.relays.osirusoft.com.]
SPAM:
SPAM: -------------------- End of SpamAssassin results ---------------------
Could it be that the machine running SpamAssassin has an invalid date
in the past, and hence re-processes old messages and rejects all the
new ones partly because it considers they come from its future?

I’ve got about 20-30 new threads in the box overnight that all start
with replies. I recognize some the subjects as being fairly old
threads too.

Me too. And one of the messages (ruby-talk:82329, subject “Re: 99 days…”)
seems to imply that “today” is August 8. Mighty suspicious…

News->email. Several messages – including the “Text::Format bug” that
Clifford Heath posted this morning. I found the message on Google Groups,
but not in email. The originating message still hasn’t come through.
It looks like the email->news is working perfectly.

There seem to be some problems with the spam checker, I received a
message from the mailing list software which said that my postings were
spam and couldn’t be sent to the list

Yes. I have the following in my .spamassassin/user_prefs:
score RCVD_IN_OSIRUSOFT_COM 0
score X_OSIRU_OPEN_RELAY 0
Speaking of spamassassin, I recently upgraded to 2.55 and I see major
improvement once the Bayes filtering kicks in.
