Hi:
A lot of mail has shown up in the group debating the soundness of Habeas's
watermarking scheme. Whether that debate is on topic, I'll leave as an
exercise for others. For the record, I think Habeas's idea is sound enough,
provided they follow through with it. But this is not what concerns me.
Is this possibe?

That's all you need to do. SpamAssassin doesn't actually run any tests that
have a score of 0, so the test was all set up and ready to be run, but disabled
(by the zero score). Changing that is all you need to do to enable it.
