They're calling messages SPAM at a score of 2, which is WAY too 
low.  Adding a real name will bring you up .961 points, removing html 
will bring you up .001, a plain english subject will bring it up 1.723.

Kill level of 2?  He apparently doesn't want to communicate with
anyone. 

But you can lower your score easily, just by adding a "real name" to
your e-mail address. Instead of 
> From: <te...@mydomain.com>
> To: <pi...@domain.it>

do:
> From: "Tech support" <te...@mydomain.com>

Then your message will only score 1.5, and it will be below the fellow's
ridiculously low scoring threshold.
