 Well, I actually filter my list mail before filter with SA, too. But
 that, indeed, does not answer my question ;-).

 Yes, you're *almost* right.

 I think I should customize the scores, yes. I was just wondering how
 come that spam gets 3.6 and regular mail gets 4.4. I think it is
 because the default SA scores are set to 4.3 when it detects an empty
 reply-to field, which is a bit high imo. I'll check that.
