This description was much better than your subject. :)  SA does not
block mail, and as you just described, it doesn't even quarantine
identified spam either on its own. Anyway...

The default required_score threshold is 5.0, and stock SA rules' scores
have been generated with that in mind.

The *only* rule that is in the stock SA rules is the first one, and
scoring merely informational.

All rules but the first one are your local rules, accounting for a score
of 3.01 -- which by default would not exceed the threshold. Even worse,
by default the overall score would be a positive 0.0.

Your own rules, together with your low required_score setting, are
causing your FPs.
