Scott,
Would you say that this test is still "a valid" test? Is it still worth
-5 when the e-mail does not fail it? If both SPAM and HAM are almost
never tripping it perhaps it is a moot point anyway as all mail will
have the -5 added to it.

It looks for information that is rarely ever seen in spam, that appears
more frequently in legitimate E-mail. The idea is to help ensure that
legitimate E-mail gets delivered. However, it seems that since the test
was created, more and more spammers have started using portions of real
legitimate E-mails in their spam (in an attempt to bypass Bayesian
filtering), which may cause this test to be triggered.
