You -do- understand that the 'fuzzy' part of FuzzyOCR means that it
does inexact matching on the characters that it pulls out of an
image. So for example, a college newsletter that I received which
had a school logo image fired on FuzzyOCR claiming to match "company".
I've also seen it fire on things such as an airline ticket confirmation
notice, a religious newsletter, and a technical bulletin. Just one
word for each, which with the default score wasn't enough to tag
as spam but with a score of 10 a guaranteed FP.
