Ok, the GIBBERISH filter is finally updated. It has a bunch of tweaks
from the time when I last shared the file publicly. Among the changes
are exclusions for mail clients by way of either their behaviors or by
way of some identifier, additional word and acronym exclusions a couple
of which are pretty common (QTR for instance), and something that I
believe makes the filter much less apt to false positive on E-mail, it's
a group of words that are indicative of auto-generated codes, from part
numbers to passwords. The trick with the last part is that while a
customer number for instance probably won't include one of the offending
strings that this filter looks for, it's indicative of the type of
message that has a much higher chance of becoming an FP on this test.
I'm expecting with this change that I will see far fewer FP's, which I
base on a cursory review of a month's worth of monitoring (though not
always attentively).
Although adding the "Auto-generated Codes" counterbalances to the
GIBBERISHSUB filter isn't going to make a big impact, I went ahead and
included it anyway just to be safe, and added a few additional word
exclusions. I also added an additional method of detecting
forwarded/attached messages to Y!DIRECTED in order to further prevent
the possibility of FP'ing.
So, all three filters were updated this morning.

Please keep reporting bugs when you find them. I'll work on updating
the DYNAMIC filter next.
Enjoy,
