It was picked up by the Barracuda intent filters, which means that others
using Barracuda must have already been marking that message as spam before
it hit our network (one message sent yesterday got through, it's the ones
from today that didn't).

Can't remember the last time I seen a false positive (I wouldn't consider
the message in question a false positive).
