[spambayes-dev] Proposed fourth X-Spambayes-Classification header value

I'm working on this problem that crops up in pop3proxy and hammie where 
malformed headers cause the parser to raise an uncaught exception, 
rendering spambayes more helpless than a baby seal.  It's no problem to 
catch the exception, but what to do with the message is the issue.  I have 
two suggested approaches:

1. Assume that the mail is spam.

2. Add a new possible value to the classification header, something like 
'unclassifiable'.

Other alternatives, votes, or general booing and hissing?
