You should really cleanup your signatures. I have a Phishing set of 512 Phishing of which 23 are not recognised by ClamAV. From those only 4 are captured by your signatures, which are the following:
Firstly, thanks for the feedback. Although I must say, I'm disappointed but not really surprised that my signatures, didn't get all your samples, as there are sooo many ways of doing phishing attempts.
If I scan the complete set with your signatures a lot of mails already recognised by ClamAV are actually recognised by your signatures, so there are quite some duplicates in your signatures, compared to ClamAV.
Hmmm.... well, in my sample set, I've certainly scanned them with the default ClamAV sigs and then used --remove to remove the samples *before* I try to create a sig for the missed ones. I guess
there muar be dupes...elsewhere.

Both signatures will match... but
I might post a list of the signatures, that are recognising mails, that are already in ClamAV signatues, but I rather see you doing a cleanup first
I feel that it's going to be quite difficult for me to go though 500-odd ClamAV phishing signatures and compare them, with an editor to my 100-ish signatures and find out what bits are duplicated. I really
need some samples.

If possible, to save a whole load of time... could you:

a) give me the sample phishing emails that are duplicated
b) give me the sample phishing emails that are missed

Email me, to chat off-list: steveb_clamav -AT- sanesecurity -DOT- com

Thanks again for the feedback...

Steve
