to Postini Support for Policy Management and Message Recovery for Google Apps
I have 2 accounts in google apps
zzzz.net and zzzz.org
the one with the .org ending is a premium account and has postini
support.
Every single .org account has an identical .net account that is
forwarded to the .org account (but there are .net accounts that are
not forwarded).
I have placed both my zzzz.org and my zzzz.net accounts on the postini
Approved Senders list.
I have also added spf txt records for both domains....
and yet some email sent from a user in the zzzz.net domain (hosted by
google apps) that is forwarded from the .net domain to the zzzz.org
domain (hosted by google apps with postini) goes to spam.....why? what
else can I do to stop that from happening? the text isnt even spammy!

I am including the header as seen in the postini archive.
thanks,

If this email was in Postini's quarantine, where are the Postini
headers as shown in the example below? While having an SPF record is
good, SPF is not used for spam filtering, other that verifying by the
SPF record where email should come from.

Example:
X-pstn-levels: (S:65.73936/99.90000 CV:99.9000 R:95.9108 P:95.9108
M:57.5037 C:99.7951 )
X-pstn-settings: 4 (1.5000:3.0000) s cv gt3 gt2 gt1 r p M c

I'm confused as to what the issue now is. I'm guessing that there may
be an alias configuration problem.

Just guide me so I know where to look.

here is the postini section of another message that was sent to spam

X-pstn-neptune: 0/0/0.00/0
X-pstn-levels: (S:97.32182/99.90000 CV:99.9000 R:95.9108 P:95.9108
M:97.0282 C:98.6951 )
X-pstn-settings: 2 (0.5000:0.5000) s cv gt3 gt2 gt1 r p m c
X-pstn-addresses: from <juanc...@zzzz.net> forward (org good) [db-
null]

again...nothing in the email is spammy. Yet according to this

These letters and numbers can be interpreted as follows.
C Commercial Offer : 0 (least spammish) to 100 (most spammish)
M Make Money Fast : 0 (least spammish) to 100 (most spammish)
P Pornographic : 0 (least spammish) to 100 (most spammish)
R Racially Insensitive : 0 (least spammish) to 100 (most spammish)
S Overall Score : Probability that the message is NOT spam
100 (not spammish) to 0 (very spammish)

(i found this on the following site
http://home.visi.com/support/services/email/postini.html#headers )

this is a very spammy message....am i reading it wrong?

thanks.

If you have the Spam null sender rule set to quarantine and if the
sender envelope is null (empty), that is processed before approved
senders and goes to quarantine.
