Actually, this isn't quite true;  the whitelist/blacklist scores in at
least one recent version of SA didn't quite work that way on some *very*
spammy-looking legit email.  (The legit message in question scored over
20 IIRC;  I think this was with SA 2.30-2.32.)

I've added a tweak in the SpamAssassin config file on all of the systems
I admin to set the whitelist score to -100, and blacklist to +100.

Just in case.
