SpamAssassin and Korean email

Has anyone who uses SpamAssassin experienced any difficulties in
delivering mail that originates from Korean (kr) mail systems, or is
composed in the Korean language? Or both?

We have our default server side threshold set at 8. Anything over that
is discarded prior to delivery to the recipient.

We have a faculty member who is convinced that their mail with Korean
correspondents is running afoul of this server side value and is
lobbying for an increase. This would, of course, impact the entire campus.

Any comments, even affirmation that you have Korean students who have
not reported problems, would be beneficial, if you have similar mail
hygiene controls in place.

Thanks,

Marty
