The original poster was upgrading to razor2.  But Bill, you did not
say which version you were using when you responded to their message.
If you are using razor1 then there is not much you can do.  But if you
are using razor2 there is definitely something you should do which
will solve this problem.

Vipul points out that razor2 adds TeS, the truth evaluation system, to
razor.  If you revoke mail falsely reported to razor then the original
reporter of the false spam will become less trusted and will
eventually have their reports of spam ignored.  This improves the
overall quality of the reporting system for all users.
