I strongly advice *not* to do this, unless you really do know what you
are doing.
The points per SA rule are no coincidence, neither an educated guess.
They are adjusted for *any* major SA release, which includes added or
changed rules and tests. This calculation is based on a an *extremely*
large corpus of Spam and Ham and takes the default score of 5 for Spam
into consideration as well.
Lowering the default score by guessing is potentially harmful.
