This doesn't get picked up
Hi,

I got a spam message yesterday with the following text

"Discover the new winning sexual erection pill!
This medication picks up where Viagra stops."

But 'viagra' was not picked up. However, when I look at the message source
I see this:

<html>

Is there a simple way of catching this apprach?

RE: This doesn't get picked up [ In reply to ]
A little light but mine marked it as spam. I use a default 4.5 instead
of 5 for this server. But the only reason it was pushed over the edge
was because of Jennifer's blackhair list. I'm thinking of raising the
value for the LOCAL_DRUGS_MALDYSFUNCTION_OBFU up some though to see what
the impact might be. The only thing that I've seen hit that rule has
been spam.

X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=4.6 required=4.5 tests=HTML_50_60,HTML_MESSAGE,

HTTP_ENTITIES_HOST,J_BACKHAIR_12,LOCAL_DRUGS_MALDYSFUNCTION_OBFU,
LOCAL_DRUGS_MALEDYSFUNCTION autolearn=no version=2.63
X-Spam-Report:
* 0.1 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message
* 0.1 HTML_50_60 BODY: Message is 50% to 60% HTML
* 1.0 J_BACKHAIR_12 BODY: 1 letters - Unsightly html tag - 2
letters
* 1.9 HTTP_ENTITIES_HOST URI: URI obscured with character
entities
* 0.5 LOCAL_DRUGS_MALDYSFUNCTION_OBFU
LOCAL_DRUGS_MALDYSFUNCTION_OBFU

Just my feedback,

There are a number of ways to check this - I received the same email and
it was picked up today using the weeds.cf from

http://www.emtinc.net/includes/weeds.cf

More information is at http://www.emtinc.net/spamhammers.htm

I recommend using backhair.cf, weeds.cf and chickenpox.cf - these have
assisted us greatly just even having installed these today - stops a lot
of the funky html tag comments :-)

The Weeds Set (not weeds2)

Re: This doesn't get picked up [ In reply to ]
Thanks for that, Jennifer

I see how this is supposed to work, but I have placed the weeds.cf file in
/etc/mail/spamassassin and made sure it has read access for everybody.

I then ran
spamassassin < mymessage.eml > result.txt

And the rules were not applied. I have attached the message if you want to
verify. Maybe it's just me being stupid, but my other rulesets like
backhair and chickenpox applied in the same fashion work just fine.

Re: This doesn't get picked up [ In reply to ]
Yes, I did restart the daemon. I checked using spamassassin, not spamc
anyway, so restart of the daemon is not necessary.

However, I modified the rules a bit. Seems that when you remove the ';'
from the rules it works. I didn't see any ;'s in the mail that was slipping
through.

Perhaps that was the problem?

Danie Marais

yes, that was the problem, Danie. Don't remove the ";", make them
optional. (at least that is what i would suggest, so that it still
catches the other form as well.) I'll do the same for the distribution
set.

Re: This doesn't get picked up [ In reply to ]
I though about making it optional, but it is at the end of the text it
checks for. It is like saying
"match rule X and then there can be a ; at the end or not"
I'd rather just say
"match rule X"
