I have SpamAssassin integrated on my postfix mail server via 'Amavisd-new'.

The problem that I am facing is that I am receiving same email every 15 second from same sender with same message-ID on my production mail servers, following are my postfix logs:

Oct 25 01:11:02 g2t0433g postfix/smtpd[6497]: connect from webmail.warwick.net[204.255.24.104]

How to determine that such mail is genuine or SPAM?

Is there any rule on spamassassin that I can set that will discard such mails?

Right now I have added 'peter***@warwick.net' in my postfix 'main.cf' restriction list as follows:

smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
  check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/senderRestrictionList,  
  reject_unauth_destination,
  reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org,
  reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net
  permit

Is it the right approach?

Please help

Thanks in advance

If you let the message queue up on your server (instead of rejecting it,) you should be able to do sudo postcat -q <message id> to view the message and its headers. This should let you determine if its spam or not.
