I agree with you here. Adding an SA rule to tweak the score based on 
simple things like the sender address is pretty easy to do. If you don't 
know how to do it, then read 'man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf' will tell 
you most of what you need to do, and a quick look for an envelope rule 
in /usr/share/spamassassin will give you plenty of examples.

I don't want to waste time and resources on things that SA already does 
perfectly well.
