Rather than give a rule a score and accumulate the score each time it hits, have a META rule that accumulates the number of matches on the regex, and then scoring rules for "more than N hits on the META rule". Thus the score for that one regex doesn't grow with longer messages, but the possibility of scoring grows. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: ApacheCon 2003, 16-19 November in Las Vegas.
