We use them as well, but I think the possible problem Thorsten is thinking of, is the validity of these rule-sets in a foreign language (i.e. German). Has anyone done any tests on this?
Sure 95% of the spam coming to our (swiss) domains is in english (well, if you clean up the bad english :-)) but 90% of the "productive" mail is in german. If weeds (blackhair or whatever) is looking for unrealistic english combinations, surely this might hit realistic german (french, italian, etc.) combinations... Is this a real problem? I don't know - it's not a problem on our servers at least...
