'hardcore' words are not necessarily enough to determine that an item is
spam.
I suggest you start your testing with a real spam mail (and you can find
quite a lot of those in places like news.admin.net-abuse.sightings), using
the SpamAssassin command line interface. Once you're happy that it scores
mail properly, feed the body plus your custom headers to the command line
interface. Bear in mind that a good chunk of the SA rules check headers
for things like invalid timestamps, spam signs etc, so your effectiveness
may be crippled.
Thanks..will do that. I agree that the message we are testing against are
very short but I think most of the user generated content on our site will
be short (feedback, comments etc). So I guess we will have to write a lot
more custom rules to achieve what we really want.
