I'm looking a way to create a rule that will allow me to filter on

doing this is to add an eval rule to EvalTests.pm, but this is obviously 
not a preferred method.

Anyone have any other suggestions?

1) Don't accept mail for invalid users.
I don't accept email for invalid users, but if there is at least one 
valid user in to To: or Cc: list, I need to accept the mail.  My 
thinking is that if there are also many invalid users in the list, then 
it's more likely to be spam.

2) Write a plugin. http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/PluginWritingTips
DOH!, forgot about that.
