If they are not they soon may be to get their eMails through SA protected mail gateways... Especially as there seem to be quite a few accesses to the SpamAssassin.org site refered by spammer-friendly discussion forums... I wonder how easily the non-spam signatures recognized by SA could be abused to hide a Spam mail from SA...
