Thanks for the reply Michele.

However, my question still applies even if the spam threshold were
increased. In some cases false positives are marked with a score that is
well beyond what I have found a effective threshold for our networks.
Here is an example:

> X-Spam-Report:
>       *  1.6 BAYES_60 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 60 to 70%
>       *      [score: 0.6887]
>       *  4.9 RCVD_IN_XBL RBL: Received via a relay in Spamhaus XBL
>       *      [67.125.228.229 listed in sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org]
>       *  1.7 RCVD_IN_NJABL_DUL RBL: NJABL: dialup sender did non-local SMTP
>       *      [67.125.228.229 listed in combined.njabl.org]
>       *  0.1 RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL RBL: SORBS: sent directly from dynamic IP 
> address
>       *      [67.125.228.229 listed in dnsbl.sorbs.net]
>       * -1.1 AWL AWL: Auto-whitelist adjustment
> X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=7.3 required=5.0 tests=AWL,BAYES_60,
> RCVD_IN_NJABL_DUL,RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL,RCVD_IN_XBL autolearn=no

The question again: how to make spamassassin more lenient for dynamic
RBLed IPs? Is the best solution simply to lower the score for RBL rules?
