------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2006-03-27 11:49 -------
The tests for dollars in the Message-Id are grossly overused.

There are at least two tests for this condition, namely:
header __MSGID_DOLLARS_OK      MESSAGEID =~ /<[0-9a-f]{4,}\$[0-9a-f]{4,}\$[0-9a-
f]{4,[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/m
header __OUTLOOK_DOLLARS_MSGID  MESSAGEID =~ /^<[0-9a-f]{12}\$[0-9a-f]{8}\$[0-9a
[EMAIL PROTECTED]>$/m
[by inspection the latter is a subset of the former]

These then appear in numerous, independant, metas, including:
MSGID_DOLLARS
RATWARE_MS_HASH
RATWARE_OUTLOOK_NONAME

A single header (this one is from Microsoft exchange) eg
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
will trigger all three of the above, resulting in a false positive (score 5.4 
just for those three rules).

The rules need mergeing/adapting so that only one scoring rule is triggered by 
such a header.
