Why do you guys keep on nitpicking about rules and scores thread after
thread?

The fact is that SpamAssassin is probably _never_ going to catch 0-day spam
(or even much longer, pick your number) on purely "default non-net" rules.
The content rules are extremely simple to bypass and sa-update will never be
realtime. You only block when someone else has seen the spam or on
botnet/rdns rules. Or when Bayes has happened to seen similar stuff.
