  Hi,

we use spamassassin with the sought ruleset since several years at our
company. After the upgrade to from 3.2.5 to 3.3.1 we notice tons of
false-positives hitting on the rules JM_SOUGHT_1 and JM_SOUGHT_2.
Unfortunaley I can not give examples as these messages contain
confidental customer data (assurance company). We had more than 100
false-positives with these rules in the last 2 days.

I have drastically lowered the score from 4.0 to 1.0 for both rules and
wanted to ask if anybody else noticed that?

Cheers, Jan


below is an FP which is a "public" mail. I'm going to zero the corresponding rules (I prefer false negatives, which help improving local rule, over false positives, exceptionally when I "can't explain why").

Hi MustLive

Thanks for your suggestion.

Searching for Google Cache might be a good feature to add in inpathx
but I'm afraid this realm should/can be done with other tools like
SiteDigger (http://www.foundstone.com/us/resources/proddesc/sitedigger.htm).
