I suspect it's hitting on all those dates as well, and needs some more
tightening.
In the spams I’m looking at, all the hex strings are 32 characters. How long
were they in Joe’s samples (no longer on pastebin)?
I have seen examples with hex strings as short as 12-16 characters, as
well as GUID-esqe xxxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx dash-separated sequences.
That's why the HEXHASH rule is more complex than what's being suggested
here
Can some fresh samples be posted to pastebin?
