I usually do something like:
grep MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS /etc/mail/spamassassin/* /usr/share/spamassassin/*
primitive but informative.. well, so long as you can read regex.
Also, you can grep or zgrep MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS /var/log/maillog* or
whatever your log is, and see what it's hitting. If it's not hitting any
ham, then you might be okay raising the score a bit. Note this isn't a
scientific, nor thourough check, so ymmv..

Hi friends,
I just wanted to know whether increasing the score will lead to false
positives or not. As I am a new bee to SA, I don't have much idea about it.
Hope you all will focus some light on this...
Warm Regards,

*Subject:* MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS
What does MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS mean?
Can I increase the core for this? Will it lead to false positives?
Since last two weeks we are getting lot of spam emails. I found that all
these mails has one thing in common which hits MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS.

Hehehe, for further reference, "I'm hoping for some feedback" is a more
polite way of putting this.
All you need to do is add the line into your local.cf
score MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS X.X
(X.X is the score, for example 3.0 if you want 3 points added, 2.4 if
you want 2.4 points added... etc etc).
