lots of spam getting through all of a sudden

I added an additional meta rule to spam.assassin.prefs.conf since I was 
seeing the same thing last friday. They seem to hit these two. The TVD 
rule is from sa-update, so you'll need to run 'sa-update -D' to get that 
one (it scores 2.80 by default too!).

meta            LOCAL_SPAM_07202006     (EXTRA_MPART_TYPE && 
TVD_FW_GRAPHIC_ID1)
describe        LOCAL_SPAM_07202006     spam bomb 07202006
score           LOCAL_SPAM_07202006     10
