Please note that the comment above is wrong. It actually means

By that, you disabled Russian and Korean detection, err, guessing. ;)
The TextCat plugin thus will never detect any mail written in either
Russian or Korean -- and subsequently will not be able to tell it is an
UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY, because it didn't guess any language.

In other words: TextCat will not identify text to be written in the
languages specified by inactive_languages, because you told it to. If it
can't guess a language with sufficient confidence, it can't be sure it
is outside the list of ok_languages either.

See the previously referenced documentation for the TextCat plugin.

With "ok_locales en", did you lint the configuration? Any issues?

(Yes, I do advocate ok_locales usage, were appropriate. It kicks some
serious butt here.)

Can you put a raw, sample message up a pastebin or any accessible place
(don't paste, don't attach to a post), that you believe should be caught
but wasn't by ok_locales, please?

Sorry, if I'm wrong, but... That suggests you did *not* lint your
configuration. You would have gotten a warning when using ok_languages
without the TextCat plugin enabled.
