Having greatly lowered the scores on various from...nums rules, I've also 
looked at what parameters would be needed to have viable rules against my 
corpus. 

Testing specifically for hotmail addresses, and I find no ham that's
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

header    RM_fl_d6hotmail    From =~ /\b[a-z]+\d{6,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/i
describe  RM_fl_d6hotmail    From contains apparent spammer email addr pattern
score     RM_fl_d6hotmail    3.000  
#stype    RM_fl_d6hotmail    spam
#hist     RM_fl_d6hotmail    Created by Bob Menschel May 24 2004
#counts   RM_fl_d6hotmail    370s / 0h May 24 2004

I then tested the more generic name\d+ and find one ham at 8 digits, and no 
ham at 9 digits. 

header    RM_fl_d9           From =~ /\b[a-z]+\d{9,}\@/i
describe  RM_fl_d9           From contains apparent spammer email addr pattern
score     RM_fl_d9           3.000  
#stype    RM_fl_d9           spam
#hist     RM_fl_d9           Created by Bob Menschel May 24 2004
#counts   RM_fl_d9           20s / 0h May 24 2004

header    RM_fl_d8           From =~ /\b[a-z]+\d{8,}\@/i
describe  RM_fl_d8           From contains apparent spammer email addr pattern
score     RM_fl_d8           3.000  
#stype    RM_fl_d8           spam
#hist     RM_fl_d8           Created by Bob Menschel May 24 2004
#counts   RM_fl_d8           230s / 1h May 24 2004

Some variation on these may be improvements over the current distribution 
FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS and/or ADDR_NUMS_AT_BIGSITE and/or FROM_WEBMAIL_END_NUMS6

(ps: I see my CLA status still is X. My CLA was faxed in on Jan 10 2004. I can 
scan & email or fax to you if that will help.)
