In looking at why some spam is still making it through, it appears that

Thanks. The scoring can vary depending on when the pyzor callback fails.
For example, in another run, the pyzor error doesn't come back until after
more of the URI checks are done:

So I get a much higher score:
Yes, score=10.1 required=5.0
Run it again, it fails earlier, and I get:
Yes, score=8.1 required=5.0
Run it again, it fails later, and I get:
Yes, score=12.8 required=5.0
etc. I.e., the scoring is completely erratic based on where URIBL
processing is when the pyzor callback fails.
