The problem I see with evolving the scores for network tests is that
the BL's are temporal -- that is, the hit/miss status of any given
message in the corpus can change at any time as the database changes.
Sites are added and removed from the various BL's all the time, and so
you can't get consistent and reliable results, especially with the
older spam in the corpus whose relay-raped servers are since closed.

As for how long a message stays in razor, I don't know, so perhaps
that one could be evolved.  It's a tough call since there are so many
false-positives in Razor.
