Hi there,

This is a more or less random data point.

Er, ditto.

One thing has become much more obvious lately here and I felt the need
to get it written down somewhere.

We're seeing a lot more spam than ever we used to which is written in
CJKV (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese) using UTF-8 encoding.
It's mostly phishing of some sort.

We use UTF-8 text strings in Yara rules to catch a lot of this spam
for our automatic abuse reporting system.

Obviously to make things human friendly it helps a lot if the terminal
emulators, editors and other tools can render the text as appropriate,
but my point is that, however you manipulate Yara rules for ClamAV, as
things are they work fine for this purpose and I'd really hate to lose
that capability.
