Spanish Content
Hello, I have a client that uses Spanish content and is getting filtered due to some of the symbols used. Is there anything in SpamAssasin that takes that into account? Should they use English content and use a web link for the Spanish content? Thanks very much for your insight. Kindest Regards, Josie Josie Walls Senior Email Deliverability Manager WhatCounts, Inc.

FW: Why is this spam passing my SA (counterfeit goods)
Hello, Would this group agree that requiring 5 hits in order to classify an email as spam is too conservative a number? I suspect ISPs have their filter settings at 3 or less. Any insight would be appreciated. Kind Regards, Josie Josie Walls Senior Email Deliverability Manager WhatCounts, Inc.

Score Definitions
Hello, I am a first-time user of SpamAssasin. While testing content for a client I received the below results: 0.6 HTML_90_100 BODY: Message is 90% to 100% HTML 0.9 HTML_IMAGE_RATIO_04 BODY: HTML has a low ratio of text to image area 2.3 HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_12 BODY: HTML: images with 800-1200 bytes of words 2.1 HTML_MISSING_CTYPE Message is HTML without HTML Content-Type 2.3 HTML_SHORT_LINK_IMG_2 HTML is very short with a linked image Can anyone tell me where I can get explanations or reasons why the scores are high? Are these tactics used by spammers? I appreciate any insight this group can provide, even if it's a link to a page where I can get information so I can explain to my clients that these are bad practices they should change. Thanks very much for your help. Kind Regards, Josie Josie Walls Senior Email Deliverability Manager WhatCounts, Inc.
