I guess it depends on what options you want to use when you find spam.
Personally I think the simplest is to score it all, tag it at 2 levels
(striphtml on the higher one) and then give the user tools to deal with
it as they want.

I guess if you want to look at bouncing or deleteing or stuff like that
then you may need to break things up...

Cheers,

Martin
