> I just pushed out the new scores (and a bugfix or two) as 2.11

The new scores look MUCH better. By the way, using my corrected scores with 2.1
for the last few days, I've had excellent results. Not a single false positive
and only a couple missed spams. I think the new scores will be even better.

Here's a quick list of the scores I still think might need tweaking:

NEGATIVE SCORES that weren't indended to be:
(probably by now most of these are just bad rules and should be set to zero)

score CASHCASHCASH                   -0.839
score COMMUNIGATE                    -0.351
score DEAR_FRIEND                    -0.242
score DEAR_SOMEBODY                  -0.492
score EXCUSE_10                      -0.408
score EXCUSE_12                      -0.590
score FOR_JUST_SOME_AMT              -0.148
score INCREASE_SALES                 -1.273
score LARGE_HEX                      -0.815
score MAILTO_LINK                    -0.226
score MAILTO_TO_REMOVE               -0.107
score MSGID_HAS_NO_AT                -0.320
score ONCE_IN_LIFETIME               -0.405
score OPPORTUNITY                    -0.651
score PORN_6                         -0.991
score PORN_8                         -0.994
score PROFITS                        -0.162
score SUBJ_REMOVE                    -0.471
score SUSPICIOUS_CC_RECIPS           -0.321
score TO_MALFORMED                   -0.050
score TRACKER_ID                     -3.369
  (what happened to this one?)
score X_PRIORITY_HIGH                -1.168

NEGATIVE SCORES that are perhaps a bit too negative:

score EGP_HTML_BANNER                -6.039
score IN_REP_TO                      -5.029
score PGP_SIGNATURE                  -5.054

(I'm sure these were scored correctly, but any of them would be very easy for a
spammer to add to a message to defeat SpamAssassin.)

My only other concern is that a few scores might be a bit high - for example,
CTYPE_JUST_HTML is at 4.459. This works for me, but I thought some people were
having false positives on this rule recently. It wouldn't hurt to wait and see
what people report, though.
