------- Additional Comments From Bob@Menschel.net  2005-07-02 17:57 -------
The following rule will be in 70_sare_header0.cf as of the next update. 

header    SARE_FROM_DRUGS          From =~
/\b(?:cialis|levitra|phentermine|valium|viagra|vicodin|xanax)\b/i
describe  SARE_FROM_DRUGS          From a drug
score     SARE_FROM_DRUGS          1.666
#hist     SARE_FROM_DRUGS          Bob Menschel May 14 2005, from sample
provided by Joanne Dow

SARE masscheck results: 372 spam hits (zero ham) against corpora of 417,914
emails, 205,687 spam, = 0.09% of all email and 0.18% of all spam, and the spam
hits seem to be dropping (Bob Menschel's spam hits in mid-June were 1/3 of the
spam hits in mid-May). 

Looks like this is worth keeping in SARE, but not as a distribution rule unless
the spam rate increases. (Suggestions more than welcome.)

Note: SOMA not included in the above list since it hits ham.
