Ouch, I am testng a perl script that is only supposed to check the
actual headers, stopping at the blank line, This is one of the things
that I am checking for. I am in the middle of a set of receipes for
Maildrop and to date, using Razor and the receipes, I am catching around
80% of spam with one or two false hits, but I am working on those.
