The bigger the ISP the less true this will be. Since the most local ISP
here is two people that's a generally good rule. If the email includes
Earthlink addresses beyond the two if us it's likely spam. I'd give a
modest score to multiple addressed email in general usage. That way
ad hoc mailing lists that last a couple weeks would not get penalized
too badly.
