Ok, a (ham) scoring for NULL sender will be done.

The default will be to let pass NULL sender unscored, though.

I am currently trying to make polw run on a mail system with 17 mil mails
(loadbalanced) per day (196 mails per sec). 

With polw the smtpd porcesses grow gen sky (>1000)
Without polw postfix has around 200 processes open (per box).

So, NULL sender scoring would certainly add a neat side-effect while
being 'extremely' effective ;-)
