Enormous? Are there REALLY that MANY massmailers that can not post valid
URL's? Something is rotten in the state od Denmark...

Note that the strength of the check can be still tuned, e.g. there's
difference between

<A HREF="https://example.com";>http://example.com</A>
<A HREF="http://subdomain.example.com";>http://example.com</A>
<A HREF="http://bulkmailer.example.net";>http://company.example.com</A>

and between

<A HREF="http://phishingpage.example.org";>http://vistim.example.com</A>

However, I would be satisfied even with blacklisting of those invalid one's.
