Hi there,

using SA in a german environment we recently noticed the rule
FROM_DOMAIN_NOVOWEL, often occuring together with URI_NOVOWEL.
I understand it is 7 consonants in a row in the domain part or any URI.

Problem is, in Germany we have an abbreviation for "Ltd." which is "GmbH". Also
three letter company names are common and so we got some legitimate domains here
with company name and following "gmbh" as domain and often quoting the homepage
in a footer and suddenly you got a score of 5.8+ for a perfectly legitimate 
mail.

I think that rule needs to be reviewed. Making it 8 consonants would help. Or
perhaps a lower score? Is there any way around this problem?

Greetings...

Stephan
