Locally? sure.. In a downloadable add-on? maybe. In the SA distro? No. The main
SA distro has no place containing  policy rules that aren't strictly spam related.

SA's current definition of spam is Unsolicited Bulk Email:

http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/Spam

While these messages may be unsolicited, and there are lots of them, they are
single recipient in nature, and are specific to one recipient, not bulk-sent to
blind masses.

For example, spamhaus further elaborates on the definition of UBE:

http://www.spamhaus.org/definition.html

And this email doesn't meet technical criteria 1, because the context of a
particular recipient is relevant.

(Note: the SA project should expand its "Official" definition of spam to be more
detailed than it currently is. Currently it defines spam, but does not define UBE)
