  ALONG WITH WHITELIST for Microsoft (king of the RFC-Ignorant) passport and
expedia mailers -

WHITELIST FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED]
WHITELIST FROM @msnnewsletters.customer-email.com
WHITELIST FROM @expedia.com


   My goal is to minimize the number of false-positives to near zero.  I had
to back down the BADHEADERS and SPAMHEADERS because they mostly represent
automated mailing programs.   There are many of these in use all over for
legitimate purposes - shopping carts, confirmations, signups, etc that
people want to receive.  I'm sure Spammers monitor this list and have
already made their mailblaster headers to mimic MS Outlook and be
RFC-Compliant.  But admittedly, there are still a bunch of losers running
the old spam blasting software though.

  The only remaining false positives are related to the obligitory self-run
E-mail system that many small companies want to run.  Of course they have no
reverse DNS, they are open relay, and because of the open relay they end up
in the Spamcop database.  Normally, this 3-strikes would be considered spam.
There have been a number of these from local companies that I had to
whitelist because  the E-mail customer would expect delivery or a bounce
message.

   I could back down ORDB weighting if I add the sniffer technology to the
mix.
