Hi all! Ok, so I figured out exactly what this rule was doing (nice refresher on reg ex, which I needed anyway) but I have a question. Why is using control code evidence of spam? Especially because this rule gives 4 points, so it seems like it's considered pretty heavy evidence of spam. I guess I just don't see the connection. Can anybody help clarify? Thanks.
Here's the exact rule for your reading pleasure: rawbody HTTP_CTRL_CHARS_HOST /http\:\/\/[^\/]*[\x00-\x09\x0b\x0c\x0e-\x1f]/ describe HTTP_CTRL_CHARS_HOST Uses control sequences inside a URL's hostname _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
