...But if one has reached the point where one is scoring a message in SA
(having not previously decided to reject it for other reasons), then any
element which scores is NOT being used by itself - and therefore, in this
specific case, the backscatterer list is not standing on its own but merely
contributing to the overall score.

I have found that when it does hit, usually the message would be classified as
spam without the list's contributing points.  As for the amplification
argument, I disagree:  It is better to have redundant confirmation than to have
a failure with the primary determining factors while bypassing the redundancy
thus resulting in an incorrect classification.

For Warren Togami:  I sent you the private mail.  The problem you had with your
reply bouncing is that gmail does not generate proper "Received:" headers. 
They claim "with smtp" but omit the "from" clause - a violation of RFC 5321 and
its predecessors (with 821 & 2821 being standard) required syntax.
