not scanning outgoing email

Tue Jun 25 15:41:00 IST 2002

2.20
Probably should upgrade some day.

But I guess that tells us what Shawn's problem is.
The scores out of my 2.20 SA score file are:

CTYPE_JUST_HTML 3.2
MAILTO_LINK 0.0
SUBJ_ALL_CAPS 1.9

Totals 5.1

Wonder why 2.20 scored HTML email so highly (musta been scored in the good
ol' days...sigh. ;)
