Help with Stupid Viagra/Calis spams

I'm getting a bunch of these 
 
* V a l / u m   $ l , 2 1*
M e r / d i a
X & n a x
S o m &
* C / a l i s   $ 3 , 7 5*
A m b / e n
* V / a g r a   $ 3 , 3 l*
 
http://www.desirominnam.com

going through my spam filters, and it's only being scored thusly:

X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.6 required=6.0
	tests=BAYES_50: 1.567,HTML_70_80: 0.039,HTML_MESSAGE: 0.001
X-Spam-Level: ***


Is there a ruleset I could use add that might increase the chance of 
catching theses?

TIA,
Carl Chipman

Let's put it this way - here are the rules your message hit on my system:

You can start by training Bayes that these are spam, it will help you a lot.

If you don't have the SARE rules, several of the files there will also help.

Of course not.. none of the SARE rules cover these spams.


Really, from looking at the original problem, I'll need to create an
"antidrug31.cf" and "antidrug30.cf" that patches the drug rules. I need to add
"/" as a potential substitute for "i" and "&" as a substitute for "a".

Hi ,

I had the same problem tried upgrading the SARE rules but still no result.
Later I upgraded my Fred's Rules set & I am getting 9.x plus hits on such spam.

Why should Carl use SARE rules to catche this spam? None of the rules
you cite are SARE rules.. Not a single one.

 They're all standard SA 3.x rules, except URIBL_BLACK, which isn't from
SARE, it's from uribl.com.

Your message gave me:

X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=17.75 tagged_above=-999 required=5
 tests=DRUGS_ERECTILE=0.1, RAZOR2_CF_RANGE_51_100=0.5,
 RAZOR2_CF_RANGE_E8_51_100=1.5, RAZOR2_CHECK=0.5, URIBL_AB_SURBL=3.306,
 URIBL_BLACK=3, URIBL_OB_SURBL=2.617, URIBL_SBL=1.094, 
URIBL_SC_SURBL=3.6,
 URIBL_WS_SURBL=1.533

So you should use some SARE rules: http://rulesemporium.com
