John, would you mind sandboxing a rule?

        Two or more dots in the From username seems to be rather spammy (and 
we've talked about it before on the list).  Would you mind sandboxing this test 
rule to see if it would be helpful as a main rule?  I get a lot of spam locally 
that hits this...

header  AC_FROM_MANY_DOTS       From =~ /<(?:\w+\.){2,}\w+@/
describe        AC_FROM_MANY_DOTS       Two or more periods in the From username

We could, of course, increase to three or more dots... maybe the three-dot 
version would score higher on its own, but the two-dot could be better in 
combo... not sure.

Hopefully it's helpful...

Cheers.
