Alternatively, when you have short words, follow them by a space. Base64 encoding doesn't utilize spaces. If you really care about these words, also list them with periods and commas, but don't list something this short without something following it unless you score it very low and have no problems. Words that are longer than 5 characters should rarely on base64.
I have a filter that looks for MIME types and credits a few points for certain kinds (not JPEG's, but applications for instance). It's only there just in case and because I've yet to see any issues since spammers don't attach applications.

Dan,
One problem I have is that when Declude Junkmail processes a message that has attachments it process the attachment how it was encoded typically base 64 (of couse assuming it is under the limit of what declude scans).
When you have a filter with a small word like "c u m" or "s e x" it tends to be easily triggered in the base64 encoding.
I asked this question a while back if there was an easy way to detect attachments to possibly apply a little reverse weight, but never really got anything back concrete.

Scan attachments? Since when does Declude JunkMail scan attachments? Dan [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene Head " <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 1:34 PM Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] attachments
Is there any way to not scan attachments?
Most of my false positives are all emails with spreadsheets, word docs...
as attachments.
