Many others have the same sorts of feelings.  I've said before that no
rule should have a score approaching 5 unless it is pretty much
inconceivable that it would hit on ham.  I scored down a bunch, and
decided that the risk to ham was too great, and deconfigured the KAM
ruleset.

It was great at bringing the score of a lot of spam above my reject
threshold, and keeping a bunch of the rest out of my inbox.  A lot of
tough calls and you need to decide what you want to do.
