I was just working on some rules to catch the current crop of mal formed
urls used to escape detection by solutions that extract urls from emails and
compare them to known bad urls and I am wondering if spamassassin's patterns
for extraction take this into account?

For instance:

https:www.google.com/mail
https:\/www.google.com/mail
https:\\www.google.com/mail

Will all work at getting you to gmail because the technical spec doesn't
actually require \\ after the colon.
Will spamassassin still extract and normalize the urls above? I was hoping
to avoid digging through the source to find out.
