Hi there

I'm finding a fair chunk of spam gets past SA-3.0.3 with scores of 3-4 out of 5 even though it got 2+ network test hits.

e.g.

spamd[18676]: result: . 3 - DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE,DNS_FROM_RFC_POST,FROM_HAS_MIXED_NUMS,RCVD_IN_NJABL_DUL,RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL scantime=4.4,size=1435,mid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,autolearn=disabled

This had a Subject line of "russian XXXXX unusably in action fervid" - so I'm guessing it was spam (;-) - even though it only got a score of 3/5.

Obviously the default values are set that way as a way of implying "confidence" in what that means, it's just that I wonder if they need updating? I guess I'm referring to the scores in 50_scores.cf.

e.g. RCVD_IN_NJABL_PROXY has a value of 1.0 - and yet the FAQ on the NJABL web site (of course) tells you to set "score NJABL_PROXY 3.0" :-)

But the wonderful authors of SA know far more than I do - so are the current levels still deemed to be correct?
