"I don't even know how to mentally parse the below code that you've listed."

REVDNS END ENDSWITH .hotmail.com
MAILFROM 3 ENDSWITH @hotmail.com
HELO 5 ENDSWITH .hotmail.com

Hi Dan:

This is what the above means.

REVDNS END ENDSWITH .hotmail.com

-- if reverse dns ends with Hotmail.com end the filter and do not process
the rest of the filter.  This way it won't even trigger the test as being
run.  What that means is the reverse DNS is hotmail.com

MAILFROM 3 ENDSWITH @hotmail.com

-- naturally if line 2 is executed it means that reverse DNS is NOT
hotmail.com and if the mailfrom endswith hotmail.com then add 3 to the
weight.  As stated this is one of the many filters we have on Good ISP
filters.  This filter penalizes an email if the sender's email is hotmail
but the reverse dns and helo are not.

Similarly on line 3- 

HELO 5 ENDSWITH .hotmail.com

Add 5 points if HELO ends with hotmail.com

So if someone's email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the reverse dns is not
hotmail.com the email gets 3 and if HELO is hotmail.com then it gets 8
points.

Hope that explains it..
