Well, that wasn't what this rule does, but it does make a good point. If I get an email with a subject like 'Hello kerry_nice, get your free porn here', it is spam, no question about it. I'm not looking to whitelist these.
But what would be nice, and maybe is needed to really make this thing work for everybody and worldwide, is easier localization and customization. Yeah, I know it can be done by hacking the different files, but it seems like the rules need to evolve into something a little different and organized differently. Have the install process go though a sort of a wizard that rewrites some rules based on different conditions and answers to different questions. There was the whole debate about do you automatically tag foreign character sets or different countries. If the wizard determines that you are in China or work with a lot of customers in Chana, for example, then don't trash emails from China. What about somebody who works in a real estate firm or for a drug company. If I get an email that mentions viagra or is talking about refinancing, for all I care, score just that like 4.99 for that alone, but somebody who works in a place like that might think differently. Maybe SA needs to come up with a concept of a profile for a user or a company. This would make the installation more involved, but ultimately more useful and accurate. Certain rules like your attribution line or my customized subject could have local settings built at installation time. If you work for a pharmacy, then the rules specific to drugs will be zeroed out.
