Hello all... more and more recently i have been asked by clients why 
emails are getting marked as SPM. I tell them well maybe because of this 
and that, that use to work ok, but now they want to know why exactly an 
email was marked as spam... here is an example....

Oct 16 15:28:17 peter MailScanner[5660]: Message 1920269005F.5C45D from 
207.99.47.70 (dplatt at domain2.com) to domain.com is spam, SpamAssassin 
(score=12.46, required 4, BAYES_60 1.00, FB_4WORD_DOLLARe 0.85, 
FB_SINGLE_0WORD 0.34, FB_SINGLE_1WORD 1.01, FB_WORD1_END_DOLLAR 1.39, 
FB_WORD2_END_DOLLAR 1.39, FB_WORD_01DOLLAR1 0.60, FM_MULTI_ODD2 1.10, 
FM_MULTI_ODD3 0.70, FM_MULTI_ODD4 0.70, FM_MULTI_ODD5 0.90, 
OBSCURED_EMAIL 2.10, UPPERCASE_50_75 0.37)

So what do i tell the client?  There must be some docs or list to read 
against to figure out why its getting marked as spam....

Did i confuse anyone?
p.s. the original domain name has been change to conceal the innocent
:)
