why not doing a test that checks "name"-<email address> pairs

Hi,

I´m pretty new to SpamAssassin and maybe what I am saying is nonsense or somebody else has suggested this, or the test already exists but I don´t know how to configure it, anyway here is my question.

I´ve noticed that some spam messages not marked as spam by spamassassin (the score is lower than the limit I´ve set: 5.0. Those emails usually have some hints that suggest they are probably spam: score about 4.6). These message are addressed to many people in my domain but the names before the email address are random. To explain it more clearly, for example, the recipient in the TO field is something like this: "John" <user1@mydomain.com>. Very ofter the CC field includes other recipients like: "Peter" <user2@mydomain.com>; "Mike" <user3@mydomain.com>; etc... The think is that the email recepients (user1, user2, user3,...) are real, they exist in my domain, but the names "Peter, John, Mike" have nothing to do with "user1, user2, user3", they are picked randomly. Wouldn´t be interesting to have a test that checks the "user name-email address" pairs according to some settings?

Regards,

Alberto.
