Like I said, I think I understood the general idea,  but wanted some 
clarification.  So, if I understand correctly, there is no way to find out 
way tests a particular email failed by looking at the headers themselves if 
an email fails the PB, while the PB is in Activate mode.  I wouldn't know 
which particular tests contributed to the PB score - just that the PB score 
is over my specified threshold - is this correct?

Secondly, what purpose can the PB have of being in "score only" mode?  If 
"score only" means that there is no logging being done, but the test scores 
for the PB, how can the PB score itself?  And more importantly, what purpose 
can that possibly have?

Finally, would it not be beneficial to add appropriate headers to emails 
when they fail particular tests, even if scoring for the PB?  Then, at least 
while in test mode, we can validate which tests particular emails fail and 
tweak our systems correspondingly.  Otherwise, it becomes difficult to know 
what values & what regexs to use block certain emails.

I realize that there is a ton of information in the log files, and I 
defeinitely read them.  The biggest problem i have with the log files, is 
that there can be tooo much information sometimes, and difficult sometimes 
to relate specifically back to a particular email.  Hence the idea of 
perhaps having a "log & header" option and/or a "score & log/header" option.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Eric
