It's an automatic adjustment (positive or negative) based on the apparent sender's spam/ham record. If [EMAIL PROTECTED] has a history of sending ham, then other emails coming from that (sometimes forged) address will get a negative adjustment. If [EMAIL PROTECTED] has a history of sending spam, then other emails coming from that address will get a positive adjustment. Bob Menschel
