[SGVLUG] Testing to see if I think I'm spam

[Christopher Smith]

Sadly the spam filtering that was causing the problems was on *my* mail
server, not the list's. Interestingly, the bayesian analysis put your
message as highly likely to not be spa, but it was boosted up by the
various questionable kewyords as well as the Yahoo domain. Overall, it
didn't quite qualify as spam, despite your valiant efforts. ;-) The
specifics:

X-Spam-Status: No, score=2.982 tagged_above=0 required=5
tests=[AWL=-3.704, BAYES_00=-2.599, BOTNET=5, BOTNET_BADDNS=0,
BOTNET_SERVERWORDS=0, DIET_1=0.083, DRUGS_ERECTILE=0.282,
DRUG_ED_CAPS=0.322, RDNS_NONE=0.1, REPTO_QUOTE_YAHOO=2.599,
SARE_DIPLOMA2=0.9, SPF_PASS=-0.001]
