[SAtalk] ICAP eval test

2004-01-16 Thread Andrew_Hoying
Has anyone thought about including the ability to connect to an ICAP proxy server as an eval rule to test urls against? If they fail then that is a pretty good spam indicator, and the overhead should not be too high I don't think. It might be a little difficult to set up, and most sites would n

The problem comes from the URLs, in this case. For example www.somewhere.com/checkflight.pl?airport=jfk or any manor of hits like that. In fact most every false positive hit I've seen on this ruleset is a URL, is it possible to exclude them from the checks? Andrew

[SAtalk] BAYES_99 and USER_IN_WHITELIST

2004-01-06 Thread Andrew_Hoying
Hello, I have a number of permissive whitelists in order to keep good if slightly spammy email from being tagged. Unfortunately spammers seem to be relying on this fact more and more. For example I got a spam on the 3rd that would have scored nearly +50 except the forged address was @cisco.com
