False positive on FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK

The problem is still occurring with SpamAssassin 3.1.8. It looks like the
default score for FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK is now 4.1, so a false positive on that
rule alone gets it close to being marked as spam with the default threshold of
5.0.

I think the Message-ID header originally set by Outlook was altered by a Lyris
ListManager, but the X-Mailer header was still set to "Microsoft Outlook
Express 6.00.2900.3138". This is probably what triggered the
FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK. You can argue that this is a bug in Lyris ListManager, but
it's going to happen frequently and SpamAssassin ought to deal with it. I
recommend that the FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK rule be altered to not trigger on e-mail
that is forwarded through a list server.
