Scott, I can't remmeber exactly my suggestion (as said it was around two years ago) but I've made a similar research as you in the logfiles in order to go sure that the HH-SS / SH-SH ratio would be good enough to consider it a valuable option for some points in the weighting system.
There are more values that can be compared: HELO REVDNS MAILFROM COUNTRY ... There are many zombies out who send messages with randomly selected/generated values. If there is a message with HELO xy.domain.de REVDNS xy.domain.net MAILFROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] and COUNTRY shows Mexiko as origin then it maybe should be possible to add something like 20 - 40% of your hold weight to the final weight of this message.
