I'd immediately disable a rule like this. Many sites either have no website (such as the domain I use at home), or don't allow ICMP through to their webservers (like the domain I use at work). You'd probably get FPs on mail from me no matter where I sent it from.

Would a rule that adds points for no pingable web site for a domain be useful? If spam comes in from [EMAIL PROTECTED], could http://www.example.com be tested? If you get a 404 or no response, give the message a couple points. Just an idea, Mike
