Something you can help?

The report below identifies areas of your eMail that might trigger spam
blocking software for your recipients by simulating the process
typically used by most ISPs.  If an ISP identifies this mail as spam, it
could cause your recipient not to receive your mailing.

As a guideline, a score of 2.2 or lower should be received successfully
in most cases (Yahoo typically blocks items with a score of 2.3 or
higher, and Hotmail will block scores of 2.4 or higher.)  For the
highest success rate, a score of 2.0 or lower is recommended.

*NOTE: The scores above do not reflect any guarantee of mail delivery or
acceptance by email providers. They are provided only as general
guidelines.
Information on current spam scores is available on ISP websites or for
more information on SpamAssassin visit: http://www.spamassassin.org

**************************** Score Summary ****************************

Your spam score is: 4.6 points

Score Details:
 pts rule name              description
---- ----------------------
--------------------------------------------------
 0.9 HTML_40_50             BODY: Message is 40% to 50% HTML
 0.2 HTML_MESSAGE           BODY: HTML included in message
 0.7 MIME_HTML_ONLY         BODY: Message only has text/html MIME parts
 2.9 USERPASS               URI: URL contains username and (optional)
password

The original message was not completely plain text, and may be unsafe to
open with some email clients; in particular, it may contain a virus, or
confirm that your address can receive spam.  If you wish to view it, it
may be safer to save it to a file and open it with an editor.

As far as I can see it doesn't hit in the last versions to have the rule 
(3.1 series) and never did in any other version going back to the rule's 
introduction in 2.50.

The rule is not distributed with the now 7 month old 3.2 series.
