Huh? The -2.6 is not a hit it's a help. Since the email has not passed
through any servers you have not defined as trused in local.cf (see
spamass docs) 2.6 points are *subtracted from the overall score. That
way, even if the email FPed on a few rules, it's still likely to get
tagged as ham. You can turn this off by setting:

score ALL_TRUSTED 0.0

in local.cf.
