This isn't the right environment to argue about what rules SpamAssassin
includes by default.  In short, the scores are set so that any one rule
doesn't have the ability to call something spam.  In this case the message
received a 3.9 which is less than the 5 required to be considered spam (and
therefore get moderated).  If you don't think it should be included, there are
more appropriate places to discuss it off the BBLISA lists.
