The default score is 5 and if you are not familiar with spam scores, we recommend that you leave it at this value. The lower the score number is, the more tough SpamAssassin will be on the emails. The bigger threshold value you set, the fewer messages will be filtered. The default setting is 5.0, which is aggressive.
