Porn msg identification?

Hmmm...  I don't think that will satisfy my customers.

The problem is the language as well as the images contained within porn
spam.

The issue with setting the scores very high is that some customers will
want to receive "adult" emails while others don't want to receive any.

If there was a generic way to build a ruleset to modify the subject line
(or add/modify a header), that would probably take care of it! :)

Any chance something like this could be in MailScanner's future? *hint
hint*  ;)
