Removed EXCUSE_17 from HEAD cvs. hit frequencies: OVERALL% SPAM% NONSPAM% S/O RANK SCORE NAME 0.086 0.151 0.074 0.67 0.36 0.00 EXCUSE_17 test code from all files in rules dir: body EXCUSE_17 /received.{0,15} by mistake/i describe EXCUSE_17 Suspect you might have received the message by mistake lang fr describe EXCUSE_17 Excuses si le message a été envoyé par erreur If you want to re-add this test to SpamAssassin, please follow up this bug entry, improving the code until the S/O ratio goes above 0.7 (or below 0.3 for nice tests). (automated submission)
seems recoverable -- maybe make the rule a bit longer (some text at the front and/or end, possible more options to get the hit rate up a bit at the same time)
old, broken rules that nobody wanted; closing
closed, I said!
