Well, are you a spammer? Why would you expect email you sent to score above 5?

If you want to test SA, send yourself a GTUBE string, however, be careful 
about what address you use as a From: address. Some older versions of SA 
included GTUBE results in the AWL, so whatever From: address you use will 
likely be blacklisted.
