Addresses such as this "Gena Mercer" <that'[EMAIL PROTECTED]> are caught 
here quite easily on my home system:

Looks like any of the sare rules, or network tests would kick it over the 
limit. Are you running any of the add-on clamav db's? These are tagged here 
with this X-Spam-Virus: Yes (Email.Stk.Gen124.Sanesecurity.06122204). Even 
running botnet would have put it over your threshlold.
