So there's only one possible conclusion.
Senders that are too low volume to be automatically classified should be
flagged for manual analysis, and in case of such senders only the results of
manual analysis should be taken into account when deciding spam/not spam.

As I have already stated previously, if the receiver has not enough staff to
perform such manual analysis, the should hire more staff. If they insist
they cannot affors to hire more staff, they should go out of email business
and do something else. Period.
