Oh, come on now. This is just a troll on a very legitimate and
informative statement.
If spam were like virii, then it would be easy -- yes it is spam, no
it isn't.
But you know as well as everyone else spam is very dynamic, and ever
changing. SA works in a cumulative way, adding up points (score) as it
hits certain rules.
YOU determine the threshold...it's not SA's job to determine if it's
spam or not, it's SA's job to add up the scores. It's YOUR job to set
required_hits, putting you in charge when it becomes spam, and when
it's not.
Maybe someday spam writers will put a nice little statement in their
subject line "SPAM", then we'd be able to have 1 or 0, but I doubt it.
Many people have tried to give you advice, for something that really
was not clarified as to why you were trying to achieve what you were.
It doesn't help to return a question that is rediculous and very
unrealistic in nature.
...sorry to bite.
Just my $.02
