Description Stefan Bertels 2003-08-24 03:45:49 UTC
It seems that ASCII_FORM_ENTRY detects separation lines. Someone send me a 
message where the bottom contained the contact data of the company like this:

Regards
Name
__________________________________________________________________
Company Name
Street
Phone
web address and more
__________________________________________________________________

At least this is the only part of the message where more than 1 underscore 
occurs at once. I looked at the rule and I don't know how this can be easily 
distinguished from ASCII forms. But maybe someone has an idea (and more knowhow 
of regexp).

I added this to bugs as some mail was assigned "Spam" which wasn't spam at all 
and most of the tests where wrong (e.g. there is no FORM included).

actually, we should drop this rule anyway.  The GA certainly thinks so:

  0.484   0.4445   0.5743    0.436   0.08    0.00  ASCII_FORM_ENTRY

closing anyway since the GA has disabled the rule in 2.6x!
