    Today I started getting a higher spam score on the alert emails with a spam bar of+++

    Notably:

    0.8 BAYES_50               BODY: Bayes spam probability is 40 to 60%

0.8 KAM_COUK               Scoring .co.uk emails higher due to poor registry
                             security.

1.5 TO_EQ_FM_DIRECT_MX     To == From and direct-to-MX

  • Hi @voodoochill,

    Wordfence email alerts will often contain text that looks malicious because it is reporting what type of attack was found, and the specific file names involved.

    For example, it might point out that it found a phishing website, and it may be included within the email.

    What you can do is simply whitelist emails that have been verified to come from your domain (or the email that sends these alerts).
