Thanks.  So, from now on "every single solitary message" will be 
labelled as "possible spam", regardless of its spam score?  And I 
will have to scroll past the lengthy boilerplate of the uninformative 
"Spam Report" before I can read any of my actual messages?  And I and 
other users will learn to just ignore the "Spam Report" because of 
all the false positives?
