I just had a look, and the 'FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS' rule only scores slightly
less than '1'. Even though we have 'aa999' format addresses here on our
system, we still prefer to see this 'small' score because of the
tremendous amount of spam that is sent through free e-mail services that
use numbered ID's.

We also encourage our members to use an e-mail alias, to avoid having
spammers get hold of their account addresses.....
