This is in the form of www . domain . com
It was mentioned on the SURBL list, and I wrote a quick and dirty SA rule
for it. Initial tests were dissmal. 

Found 2 ham:

Also hit 12 spam out of around 70k.

A little more testing needed. But I think this shows that it isn't worth the
rule. The links break and require end lusers to not only copy and paste, but
edit the link to remove the spaces. Clearly more then most users would do.
