Hi,

Thanks for the ticket.  What you're reporting is commonly referred to as a
"false positive" (aka: FP).  The rule is actually doing the right thing -- the
subject does have two encodings in it, and so the rule is triggered.

It appears that this is more common now than it was before:

old: 1.047   1.4619   0.0792    0.949   0.58    0.89  SUBJECT_ENCODED_TWICE
new: 0.597   0.6926   0.1444    0.827   0.65    0.89  SUBJECT_ENCODED_TWICE

which basically means that the spam hits have decreased by ~50% while the ham
hits increased by ~50%.  So the next time the scores are generated, I would
expect this rule's score to drop a bit.  In the mean time, you can lower the
score on your installation as you see fit.

Hope this helps. :)

As for the ticket, since the rule is doing the right thing, I'm closing as WFM.
