Does this mean, that even >evilrules.cf [1] is redundant? rules are always useful -- note that the AWL and Bayes require training of some sort, whereas rules work out of the box. But tokenizing these URIs means that users training bayes, and auto-learning, will learn that these URIs are "bad" or "good" -- which is effectively the same as a URI auto-whitelist, IMO. >P.S.
