There are two issues here: 1) A bug in razor where it is does not understand the concept of identical data like empty mime sections or animated gifs being present in both spam and ham. 2) Pollution of the razor database by malicious people and incompertant users. Vipul has said the first problem has recently been fixed, but I expect most users aren't using a fixed version. That was Chris' problem (I expect). The second problem was supposed to be fixed by razor's trust system, but it seems empiricially it hasn't been. Perhaps the problem will go away as the algorithm is improved.
