very long?
20 chars?
4 points?
seriously?
that needs to be lower scored or 20 raised to much higher values
OK, set to 25 and limit 3.5
This rule is definitely bad.
A lot of euro languages have domains with a ton of chars.
imo, a lame excuse of a rule.
my LOUD -1 for this kind of exercise.
And another from me (40 chars in my address, for example).
antony.st...@spamassassin.open.source.it
Take another look at that regex. It's not matching domains. The match has
to be followed by an @, so it is matching the user part of the address.
FWIW, the VERY_LONG_REPTO_SHORT_MSG rule has not hit anything at all on my
server in the last month.
We had to tune that rule down quite a while ago. When you have an institutional
system which generates e-mail addresses based upon transliterated first-lastname
and have an international user community (including Latinos, people from
the middle-east or asian-Indians) you end up with addresses such as:
chethyaupalakxyz-ranasin...@uiowa.edu
hernan-nabucolevaxyzreirafrei...@uiowa.edu
ammarsahibabdulameer-xyzhaf...@uiowa.edu
So we see regular FPs on that rule (say 5~10 per month)
