I just saw that a normal Ebay outbid notice hit two high-score rules. One is from sare-spoof and I already contacted the maintainer. But one is in the default 3.1.1 ruleset and I think this rule should get completely removed or get a score of 0. It's
1.72 SUBJECT_ENCODED_TWICE Subject: MIME encoded twice >From grepping the rules it does what it says: it checks if there are two B/Q encoding identifiers in the subject. Why is this scoring with 1.72 or at all? This is absolutely valid Q/B encoding and actually *required* by RFC if your subject line is longer than 80 (or was it 72?) characters (minus the encoding, so it's actually more like a 60 raw character limit). This rule will hit on *lots* of non-ASCII mail and on almost all mail coming from Ebay Germany. There are also the rules SUBJECT_EXCESS_QP and SUBJECT_EXCESS_BASE64 which are "similar". QP scores 0 and BASE64 scores 0.449. This is much more reasonable. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com
