'actually could you edit the message to put a space between : and ; on the To 
line and see if that still trips one of the tests?  because of sendmail bugs
a lot of people receive the message with a space between : and ;.'

That's fine.  it has that space, and the "TO_HAS_SPACES" rule is picking that
up, but it's not providing any worrisome quantity of points.

the SA ruleset has several "levels" of scores --

1. really serious rules that are high accuracy.  OPT_HEADER was such a rule, but
occasionally threw up false positives -- quite a few -- so we've thrown it out 
now.

2. not-serious-at-all rules that are low accuracy, but when combined with one or
more big-hitter rules can push a borderline spam just over the threshold. 
TO_HAS_SPACES is a good example.  it's got such a low score, it's displayed as
0.0 in that report ;)  these are very low accuracy, and just provide a little
nudge -- so a hit from these on nonspam is most definitely not a problem, and
frequently happen.  

3. others which are in between.  irrelevant to this discussion.

so, seriously, no need to worry about the TO_HAS_SPACES hit, it will not affect
anything -- no message will be marked as spam if it hits that, unless it hits
some other, more serious rules, in which case *those* are the hits to worry 
about.
