The 18.80 one I got, as you might have guessed, was for some kind of fake herbal viagra.

When SA flags a message, it gives it an overall spam score based on many factors. A "normal" real email message will come in under 5. Anything over 15 is REALLY bad   "[oops]"

lol...i'll probably never beat that.

on a side note, i noticed a change on how spam assassin manipulates the spam.  instead of appending ****SPAM**** in the subject, it leaves the subject unaltered.

I think lunarpages (or someone) updated to the 2.50 version, as I just noticed today that it had changed.
