I read an interesting excerpt on the Zimbra site about commercial
whitelists.

   
http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Improving_Anti-spam_system#Externally-Maintained_Whitelists

It occurred to me that a sender that is paying their way into my inbox
is almost certainly sending me junk mail.   A little research in my
inbox and it turns out to be right on the money.  All stuff that I
didn't want. 

It seems so obvious,  if they try to buy their way into my inbox they
probably belong in my spam folder.

I took the reduced negative scores recommended by Zimbra, inverted the
values and stored these in my local.cf.
