True, the subject is a bad idea, but the contents is pretty consistent,
most have something like "Vragra" in large type, a link and some random
text fragment at the end ...

Some of the "Hi"-mails are already tagged by our filter (I'd say
somewhere beyond 80%), though some still get through untagged:

        HTML_MESSAGE 0.00, URIBL_SBL 1.09, URIBL_WS_SURBL 1.53)

        HTML_MESSAGE 0.00, RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET 1.33, URIBL_SBL 1.09,
        URIBL_WS_SURBL 1.53)

        HTML_MESSAGE 0.00, RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET 1.33, URIBL_SBL 1.09,
        URIBL_WS_SURBL 1.53)

Wonder if there's an update to the rules-emporium config "mangled" some
time soon !?
