Thai language mails false positive

Hi!

I'm using spamassassin 3.0.2 running on Linux. But I found that some rules such as 'UNIQUE_WORDS' is not applicable with Thai language and it cause false positive on Thai mails. So how should I do? Is there another way to protect Thai language to hit some rules while the English messages can use all rules.

Thanks
Tong

I think the only way is to reduce the scores for those rules. There are 
other rules which hit unintentionally, f.i. chickenpox may bark on code 
snippets. If they interfere with the kind of mail you get you have to 
change the score or disable them completely. You could also open a bug 
ticket on this rule, maybe it can be changed to suit better, I don't know.
