Its sad how this is such an ongoing problem, but this is the first that I hear 
that ppl are having problems ... looking at the message headers for a random 
few, I notice that they are scoring >4, but just below 5:

X-Spam-Status: No, hits=4.855 tagged_above=0 required=5 tests=AWL=-1.994,
 DCC_CHECK=1.37, DIGEST_MULTIPLE=0.001, HTML_MESSAGE=0.001,
 MIME_HTML_ONLY=1.672, RAZOR2_CHECK=0.5, RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET=2.188,
 RCVD_IN_SORBS_WEB=1.117
X-Spam-Level: ****

I can change the quarantining to be >4 if ppl want, which should greatly reduce 
the # of messages going through ...

Thoughts?
