(Instances of html have been changed to htnl in this message to
avoid tripping the rule I'm talking about.)

A legit message arrived at my server, for me and another user, and it
scored 8 for them and I think about 11 for me.  This is really unusual.
The big issues were:

  Sent by sendgrid: points from KAM and from URIBL_GREY both, each
  reasonable separately and I think URIBL_GREY newly lists sendgrid.

  From: was someone's (class teacher) gmail address, but it got sent out
  via sendgrid via a schoool, and there was no DKIM, so it lit up all
  sorts of FREEMAIL_FORGED, From:/env mismatch with freemail, ought to
  have DKIM from google and doesn't.

So I wrote to the person because they probably had no idea, and exlained
the above and added some other "deliverabilty hygiene" :-) comments:

and then I got a reply back with the content he was trying to send etc.
But, it had:

        *  2.5 CONTENT_AFTER_HTML More content after HTML close tag

but one was only text/plain and I could see nothing wrong.   reading
72_active.cf I found:

  rawbody    __CONTENT_AFTER_HTML        /<\/htnl>\s*[a-z0-9]/i                 
                                                                                
                                                                                
                   
which fires on a text/plain part that discusses html formatting!

So I'll be reducing that score...
