Yeah, like lawyers, warrantee disclaimers, people who are genuinely
upset, and one of my friends who has a LINE OF YELLING in his sig. Oh
and people from AOL.

If I put a copy of the GPL in this message, would SA 2.1 think it was spam?

I've looked at recent clean mail I've received from spamassassin 2.01 that
has a LINE_OF_YELLING. None of it has any extenuating negative scores, aside
from autowhitelisting, which doesn't really qualify. All indications are
that if I upgraded to spamassassin 2.1 and reset my autowhitelist, I
would be receiving about 10 false positives a day because of this.
