Summary: MIME_QP_LONG_LINE triggering on valid email
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 3.2.0
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: Rules
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I know the RFCs say any email that contains QP is meant to have 76char line
limits, but it appears to me a lot of email apps developers don't read the RFCs.
I have noticed this rule triggering a lot here: 6% of email classified as HAM by
SA triggered the MIME_QP_LONG_LINE rule.
Attached is a mail message that got a score of 5.7/5 - 1.8 points of which was
from MIME_QP_LONG_LINE.
Even though the RFC states 76 chars, would upping it to (say) 80 chars stop it
hitting spam? i.e. are the spammers who this rule affects the sorts of morons
who write one loooooong QP sentence, or are they writing it as 78char too?
Thanks
Jason
