My thinking here is that if this rule ever passes, it should not add a small

that required_score is set to. This way, if the custom rule ever matches, it

the message as spam because the score applied is the value of required_score.
That's called a "poison pill rule", and generally you don't worry about hitting
the required score exactly, you just set it to something large - like 10 or 100.
Is it possible with the SA grammar to have variables ? I was thinking I’d have
something like the following in my: /etc/spamassassin/local.cf
POISON_PILL = 100
…and then all the poison pill rules would reference that:
score CUSTOM_RULE1 %POISON_PILL
…with the advantage being that if I did want to vary the score assigned to all
these rules, I could change it in one place ?
Not at this time. As we say, "Patches are welcome!"
You'd have to do that in a preprocessing stage if you wanted to do that:
have a set of "source" rule files with tokens like that which you edit,
and run that through a substitution tool to get the local rules files for
SA to use.
