   I think the intent was what Nikolaus indicated a desire for.  To  
only use the "-o whitelist" for messages that met a specific  
qualification.  In this case, had inline'd images in the mail message  
body.

   As I think Brian may've referred to in his first message,  
something like:

:0B
* src *= *(3D)? *"? *cid:
{
   :0c
   | /usr/local/bin/spamprobe remove

   :0
   XSCORE=| /usr/local/bin/spamprobe -T -o whitelist score

   :0 wf
   | formail -I "X-SpamProbe-Headers: $XSCORE"

   :0 :
   * ^X-SpamProbe-Headers: SPAM
   $MAILDIR/.inlines/
}

   Put at the end of your [Nikolaus] .procmailrc.  Tho, that last  
segment will put it into a folder called .inlines, so that you can  
later check for false postitives for this specific thing.  If you  
wanted it to just be filed with the rest of your spam, you could put  
it into "IN.SPAM" like the rest of the things the first-pass of spam- 
probe thought were spam.

                                     - Chris
