Not necessarily.  I installed the Backhair rules after seeing Rubin's
posting, but I've still seen several "mPOP Web-Mail" spam messages
(four so far in the last couple of days) that would not have been
identified as spam on the basis of Backhair alone.

I saw one with the following garbage, for example --

    <p>Fr</arbitrage>ee Ca</hook>ble^ TV</p>

-- which matched only one Backhair test (J_BACKHAIR_22).
