looks perfectly valid.  Note that L_OLEMACRO_ZIP_PW and L_FROM_2_EMAILS each score 1 point by default.
If this is not what you want, start name with __

... I use L_ as prefix for local rules, __ prefixes test rules (no score by default) and T_ prefixes test rules (score 0.01 by default).

rules with score 0 are not evaluated unless they are prefixed with __

Also, what should I do to catch (and score) ALL mails with 2 different mail addresses in the From header (regardless whether there is an encrypted zip attachment or not)?

the __PDS_FROM_2_EMAILS should catch excatly this, but since the rule name starts with __, it has no points by default.

Thank you Matus,

I appreciate your help.

I am studying your notes; I also found supplementary documentation to help me gain some better insight (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SPAMASSASSIN/writingrules).

In case I need more of your valuable clarifications, I will have to disturb you a bit again.

One of those is: Why use parentheses in some cases, like: (__PDS_FROM_2_EMAILS) ? Do parentheses have particular significance by modifying operation/evaluation?

Thanks again,
Nick
