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.
