Looks like we'll need another rule for this guy - I guess it would be
something like:
Subject =~ /^Re:\s[A-Z]{2,8},\s[0-9]{2,8},\s[a-z]+\s[a-z]+\s[a-z]+\s*$/

We've been burned a few times by spammers getting into our servers to send

Another mailing list pointed out the new ie exploit.
What would be the SA code to detect/block such and exploit in email.
Here's an untested potentially cpu intensive rule to detect this, I am not

So we implemented SA some time ago because our clients were getting too much spam.
Lately we have found that several html marked up emails have been getting marked as
spam. These ones are clearly fp's.

Any database created as suggested should include contact information that
