Robert: Just in case you didn't realize, you sent this only to me and not to the entire list. In response to your message, I'm not sure I get you exactly..."disable autolearn on any negative score with it a default of YES", I'm not sure I entirely understand this. It sounds like you are saying, if any _one_ score adds more than X number of negative points to the total, then the message shouldn't be autolearned?

Yes, negative scores seem to be just an exploit waiting to happen. Some people may feel otherwise, that's why disabling it should be an option, but the default should be that messages containing _any_ negative score should not autolearn. It might be going too far to provide for individual score overrides, but might be convenient if there is a clamor for that kind of tuning granularity so that you could specify autolearn for HABEAS_SWE and ignore the other negative rules.
