So you would believe a 'X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0 [...]" line forged by a
spammer? Think about a script scanning for 'X-Spam-Status: No' and have a
hit on the first occurence. Might very well be the forged one. I believe
there have been reports about spammers trying that trick.

Might, or might not. You can't tell for sure. What you can tell is that
having multiple X-Spam-Status line is different from major implementations
like qmail-scanner or amavisd-new. I guess we have to go with that.
