No. Scores are not determined by how many spams a rule hits. Scores are automatically generated to correctly flag as many spams as possible without exceeding 1 false positive in every 2500 hams (with a required_score of 5). Stated in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/trunk/rules/50_scores.cf (a file you get via sa-update) So it's entirely possible to have a rule that hits a very small percentage of spam with a very large score. -- "This hurts quite a bit.
