Botnet seems to have caught that just fine (it's listed in the rules
which were triggered).  The problem is either that you're running it
at a lower score (which you could also do for Botnet0.8 if you wanted
to upgrade -- their default scores are exactly the same), or you need
other rules/configs to supplement your overall scoring system.

But, you can't blame this one on Botnet.  It scored on the message
you're reporting.
