I received an email with this code.

This was the SA score
 
MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (score=0.101,
            required 5, HTML_MESSAGE 0.00, MIME_HTML_ONLY 0.10)
 
 
I'm not sure if strip html find the "v" in this string.  "FONT-SIZE:
1px">v</FONT>mature
 
I am a very small site and have the horsepower for the processing.  
 
Any opinions?  Or alternate suggestions?  Any favorite SA rules site
that I should be updating my SA against?
 
My mailscanner is a relay for exchange.  Would going through the Bayes /
public folder / Spam mailbox implementation find this SPAM?
 
The SPAM is getting deep.

Thanks
