Your email made it into my spam folder. Mostly due to my very strict rules (courtesy of my friend Chris):
[mail:root]# cat /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf body RANDOM_WORD_10 /(?:\b(?!(?:from|even|more|that|this|were|with)\b)[a-z]{4,12}\s+){10}/ describe RANDOM_WORD_10 string of 10+ random words score RANDOM_WORD_10 1.0
body RANDOM_WORD_15 /(?:\b(?!(?:from|even|more|that|this|were|with)\b)[a-z]{4,12}\s+){15}/ describe RANDOM_WORD_15 string of 15+ random words score RANDOM_WORD_15 3.0
Your's is the first false positive I've gotten from this, but you did include the spam email to be fair.

Subject: [SAtalk] This spam scores too low From: "Jürgen R. Plasser" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2004 11:56:34 +0100 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi all,
in the last view days I experienced some (for me) "strange" kind of spam.
The first part of the email is a random text (that's what I see in my email client when opening the email):
<snip> embedding rose abalone freedman havana bayport regretful menlo gate blomquist force parasitic infelicity crayon insidious brasilia pinsky noel priestley fried praiseworthy gimmick even </snip>
Makes no sense to me at all ;-)
And besides that, there is a html part with an ad section (scrambled letter words) and below that an irritating set of words.
Is there any way to get rid (say: score > 5) of those mails with SA? Some rules?
I have SA 2.61 and the latest Bigevel rules installed.
Best regards, Jürgen
