If you are new to SA, then you are far better off getting some of the stock
rule set addons such as those from RulesEmporium or one of the other sites
than to try to just add in a few words yourself.
Once you have the newer rules (spam changes all the time, and many of the
2.63 rules are getting a little stale) and probably have Bayes turned on and
primed with 200 each hams and spams, you might consider tweaking either the
score value required to mark a message as spam, or the scores of some
existing rules, or finally perhaps add some new rules.
That partucular subject in all probability should NOT by itself mark a
message as spam! You would need to analyze the headers and body, and with
all of that combined, decide if the message was spam.
