My only concern is that after doing some checking myself with just warn on weight10 is that someone that fail revdns and badheaders will have a weight of 13 and thusely get held/deleted. I seen legit messages fail these two tests. For example my wife signed up for a newsletter for a software this weekend weight 13. I received a letter this morning from Microsoft also a newsletter missing Revdns if they would also have bad headers or something similar they would also be held.
I decided to only put warn on weight10 and create a weight 20 that I end up holding. Might consider giving OSSRC a higher weight so that your OSSRC and spamheaders push it up higher then 10 or make sure you lower revdns since it seems so many legit mailinglist/newsletters unfortunately fails this test.
