Andrew, 

Can you give me some examples?  5% sounds way too high.

We also discovered a bug in the backend implementation of Whiplash 
that affects a small percentage of Whiplash signatures and can 
potentially cause FPs. Again, example FPs would be helpful to 
determine if you are affected by this bug. 

cheers,
Vipul

Subject: [Razor-users] Too many false positives


I've used razor for a long time, both directly and via spamassassin, and
it has worked well for me, up until recently when it has started showing
too many false positives - around 5% of incoming mail.  This has
happened since I upgraded to razor-agents version 2.61.

It appears that this relates to the new url checking features, and has
already been discussed a little on this list.  I'm not sure though
whether others are seeing as much of a problem as I am, or whether any
fixes are in progress, or what's expected as revoke commands are issued.

Our incoming mail consists mostly of political mailing list material. 
I'm seeing false positives on urls from groups.yahoo.com, greenpeace,
New Zealand politcal parties and others.
