So I got myself a Nintendo Wii, and decided to check out its email
capabilities.  It hit a few rules that weren't enough to push it over
the default limit, but it was close (my test scored 4.3).  I figured I'd
share the results with the list to see if this is something worth
pursuing in the base rules.

The full message (incl. SA tagging) follows.  The only changes were to
my Wii address, my personal email address (changed to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]), and my webhost login name (changed to
local-user).
