depends on how you handle a score of 6.651 in MailScanner....
I deliver (with Tagged subject) scores from 5-10, and block anything with score > 10, so this kind of thing still ends up in the recipients email.
You could lower the score of the rules in spam.assassin.prefs.conf, or whitelist known users in the same file..

I have had a couple of FP's recently from valid AOL users. AOL recommends appending digits to your screen name to make it unique, and many users do that. The result (sender using AOL 9.0 client, SA 2.63) is a penalty of 6.39 points right off the bat. Isn't that a bit extreme?
