I may seem small, but the SKIPIFWEIGHT functionality seems overly cumbersome to use. I don't like defining the same lines repeatedly for each test. I would like to place the HOLDIFWEIGHT and/or DELETEIFWEIGHT lines in the $default$.junkmail file. Or in any per domain/per user .junkmail file. This would allow me to have the tests add/delete weight to the current message weight and have the system/domain/user settings determine when to perform all actions (ie. HOLD, DELETE, HEADER, WARN, IGNORE, etc).
One possible solution to this may be to move the WEIGHTHEADER, WEIGHTHOLD and WEIGHTDELETE lines to the .junkmail file. This way the settings could be defined as appropriate for the scope (system/domain/user). Instead of defined them as tests, they would be conditional actions based on the changing message weight. If this was done, I would ask for an option on each WEIGHT action to stop further processing. In any case, I feel that it's important for me to be able to change the test (or test group) processing order. Over 70% of our deleted messages could be determined without leaving the server (no network access) by using the sniffer test and the internal tests (BadHeaders, Routing, etc) only. Again, it may seem small, but limiting the necessary processing and network access in any way can add up.
