Can you zip up some examples and send them to me?
I'm researching this issue right now and I need more data.

PS: A number of word / phrase based rules have been dropped from the
core rule base due to false positives - not many, but this might
explain some of what you're seeing - I will know more when I have some
examples. If that's the case I can always put the rules back in for
your local rule base.
