Well, sure, and I could have a cousin in Nigeria who really does want me 
to partake in a business opportunity, and my spam filter would catch 
that. If you're already scanning your spam bucket for false positives, 
then this isn't an issue. If this IS an issue, you can whitelist 
'important' addresses and siphon them off before they hit Razor.

Cheers,
Waider.
