Looks like I should document the phishingmodule better, at least on the
wiki.
I'll try to do that in the next few days.

Not dropped. Its handling changed with images.

The test here https://wwws.clamav.net/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=141 works.

If you could send me the 20061007-042145.696587_Html.mbox, I'll
investigate further. My guess is that the hexurl was in an image link.

--phishing-cloak is for hexurl, %00, and encoded urls.
There is no option to turn on numericip alone, it'll get turned on by
the no-phishing-restrictedscan option.

Yes.
--no-phishing-restrictedscan activates ALL checks, and checks everything
regardless of daily.pdb (.wdb still honored).

Want to keep it.
* "restrictedscan" means the default behaviour, when only domains listed
in daily.pdb are checked. The default is RESTRICTED to *.pdb domains.

* no-"restrictedscan" means to check EVERYTHING, regardless of *.pdb .
It does more checks, but you're likely to get many false positives.

IMHO only documentation needs to be fixed. But I'll do some tests on the
phishing module.

My question too for Tomasz.
