I looked at that, quite a lot of these:

"head:MIME-Version"                7120  0.547905  0.911718  0.624626 -

"head:Content-Type"                9066  0.775758  0.968561  0.555266 -

I've taken a look at other messages, and it seems Bogofilter doesn't like mail
from Outlook Express, which is not at all surprising ;-)

Anyone who mails me from a Linux platform always gets a 0.00000 score.
