Be aware that scoring mail-IDs this way may cause false positives, and
*will* score some valid addresses higher.

As an example, you might score mail from my work address higher,
because our twenty-year-old naming scheme uses mail-IDs like
UDSD007, where U indicates the agency, DSD the division, and 007
is sequentially assigned to that division of that agency. When we
formulated the scheme, electronic mail was decidedly uncommon, and
hardly anyone outside academia used TCP/IP.

I've already been caught by SA rules at more than one site because
my mail-ID matches /\w[0-9]{1,}/.
