Thomas,

I used to have higher SA scores for 95-100% razor spam confidence.

However, I found that I could not increase the score very much.
Occasionally, I would get a false positive for a blank email, no text with a
few HTML tags and just attachments.  The Razor database regularly contains
data that indicates that a blank email is 100% known spam.  There was no way
to prevent the false positive because the whitelist feature for hash values
was removed.  I also tried combining scores for messages with a small amount
of text and positive razor hits, but that allows too much spam.
