You can look at full headers for the spam, then check out the "X-Spam-Status" header; it will tell you how many hits the message got, and which tests got triggered. That can give you some idea on how to tweak things. However, you should keep in mind that there's hundereds of different rules that can interact with each other, so any tweaking you do to the rules scores is likely to increase the number of false positives (non-spam labeled as spam). Its generally best to just trust the GA (genetic algorithm) for scoring. Also, you might want to try downloading SA 2.5.4 or 2.5.5; spammers have been putting in forgeries to trick the "nice" rules meant to detect non-spam, so the scores in 2.5.4 and later have been changed to deal with this. -- Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
