We're also getting loads of this sort of subject line:

[re:] your investor special pr news release
Top Financial Market Specialists Trader watch special pr news release
fw: Top Financial Market Specialists Trader watch special pr news
release
News from DLsoft: new Mac's products added

857 rule hits today, 577 of which were definitely spam, and our Bayes is
well-enough trained not to cause any problems (my rule also hits
"newsletter").

I score BAYES_99 6.5 here, and with DCC hitting most of these and my
simple "news" rule giving a boost most get kicked straight into
hig-scoring spam territory.

Cheers,

Phil
