SpamAssassin Score Record
Some week ago I installed SpamAssassin 2.41, and made sure that all the necessary Perl modules were properly installed, to get the most out of SA.
Instantly after installing the amount of spam leaking through SA was reduced (which was not really that surprising). Just now I looked through the spam that has been caught, and this one really made me wonder how stupid these spammers are.
X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=55.3 required=5.0

How do they do this? Looks like this spam (I don't really care to include it, it should almost be possible to reconstruct it from the different checks it was caught by... say no more...
