Spam not Filtered when Outlook in background

[RickObe]

One last update…
I’ve attached a week’s worth of my logging of messages that triggered my source retry loop. Every single one of them had embedded attachments, so that’s clearly the cause of the issue. I started with a retry limit of 30 (every 0.1 seconds) and ended up increasing it to 50 and then 100. At a limit of 100 retries (10 seconds), all but a very few messages are obtaining the source within that timeframe.

Great—thanks for the follow-up. I will try to get something like this built into the standard script.

SpamSieve 2.9.20 will retry automatically if there is a problem getting the message’s source from Outlook.

SpamSieve 2.9.20 will retry automatically if there is a problem getting the message’s source from Outlook.

Is that accomplished in the associated Set Category AppleScript? How many times does it retry and for how long?

Thx.

Yes, it’s built into the scripts. It will retry for 20 seconds and report in the Console log if it took multiple tries.

Thx.
