Technically, with a score of 5, the mail still passes. It just gets
marked as spam. (I hope no one actually rejects/deletes/bounces spam at
an SA score of 5 or even 6 or 7 ... that would seem to me to be a bit
irresponsible) The logic is "flag it for review/quarantine/segregation
if Botnet thinks it came from a zombie".
