Has anyone been able to come up with a safe solution to this morning's 
rash of Joe Blow wrote: spam messages? They look like this:


hi Judson i hope this is your email.
I was like to see you the other day. I hope you are actually had like the  New 
York.
So much so much happening all the time, lots of great opportunities.  
And speaking of opportunities, the deal I was speaking you about other day embraces a company 
named Tex-Homa (TXHE).
It's already growing up, but the big info isn't even 
out yet, so there's still time. I have got this shares already and made

2000. I advise you to do the same today.

Hope this helps you out.  I'll see you this weekend.
Yours Judson Herring

These aren't really triggering a high enough point value. I've run sa-update 
and these still seem to be coming through.

I'd be grateful for any tips anyone has.
Thanks

Are you running network tests?  I got one of these 2 minutes ago, and it
scored a 6.8 just from the RBL checks.  And once it shows up in the
Razor2 database, it'll score even higher.

Content analysis details:   (6.8 points, 3.0 required)

Inconsistent on the network checks.  For instance, my personal e-mail 
got 4 of these but 2 more were caught by network checks.

They are adding new PCs to the bot-nets used for spam faster than the
DNSBL operators can update the lists.

	I've just made my personal additional rules-set available at 
http://empire.wolfstar.ca/spamAssassin/ ... specifically, 
WOLFSTAR_SOMEONEWROTESTOCKUCE.cf adds 1.75 to that UCE's score, which 
seems to be enough to trip it into the spam category on my servers. 
Thanks to Peter H. Lemieux for one of the patterns I am using.
