That was a modest score.

Spammers monitor this list. One of them, who has a quite distinctive
"signature" to his spam, scored quite high but not all the way to the
magic 100. So I taunted him about it. Two days later I received a spam
crafted to reach 100 points and more without nearly as many BL scores
as you have and with generally smaller rule scores. He hit well over
50 individual rules.
