Odd Spam Assassin behavior

Hi all,

I wrote a notifier application (an event occurs and concerned parties are
notified via email). I am using Indy 9.x IdSMTP and IdMessage to send an
email (BCB5).  When testing emails sent to another of my email accounts, it
is blocked by Spam Assassin with the messages below.   This notifier worked
a couple weeks ago.  I know my Spam Assassin is set aggressively, however 5
would seem to be the default given to me and so would assume many others
would be set to 5 as well.  The same email, sent by Outlook, with the same
config, does not get blocked. The real problem seems to be the  3.3
MSGID_FROM_MTA_SHORT .  From what I have read, I cannot control the
Msg-ID--any idea what in Indy would cause this to be trapped by Spam
Assassin, but not trapped if sent by Outlook?

Think I got it
MSGID_FROM_MTA_SHORT
is thrown as a result of there not being a "From" value (as in name).
Thanks
