I've noticed this happening more and more. MS/SA are still catching the 
majority of SPAM. But I'm seeing bursts of say 5 emails all having the 
same subject and body, yet one of them will score 4.8 to 4.9 and the 
others will be just over 5 points. I'm finding bayes is what is catching 
most SPAM.
