Where can I find those LW_* rules?  Or are they part of your private

own mortgage rules.)

Loren,

Will you post your LW Stox based rules?  I think we would all like to see them.

He's more aggressive than I am. For him spam is 4.6. For me it's 5.0 and
I only score BAYES_99 at 5.0 points.

The report shows up in most setups in any spam email.  Considering this
