Hi there

I just received some spam - got a score below 0. The real surprise was
the -2 points it got from RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED - a surprise because the
domain was yahoo.co.uk!

I have no idea why DNSWL would ever give a negative score to any
FREEMAIL (I use the SA rulename there) server - all free mail services
will be prone to misuse

So I'm thinking of trying to counteract that via

meta            UNDO_DNSWL_WHITELIST       ( (RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED) && 
FREEMAIL_FROM)
describe        UNDO_DNSWL_WHITELIST       don't allow RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED
to whitelist freemail
score           UNDO_DNSWL_WHITELIST       2.0


Anyone see anything fundamentally wrong with that? It seems so obvious,
I'm thinking I've overlooked something :-)
