           Summary: false positives on X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.2.4
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: br...@interlinx.bc.ca


Similar to bug 5962 I am getting false positives from MS Outlook sent mails.

I have a message in hand that is triggering false positives based on the 
ratware rules in 3.2.4.

The specific headers are:

Message-ID: <blu0-smtp74e123fde12343a12de12bd1...@phx.gbl>
X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook, Build 10.0.6838

Specifically, it seems that the X-Mailer header matches 
__OUTLOOK_DOLLARS_MUA, and the Message-ID matches __HOTMAIL_BAYDAV_MSGID

The problem is that __OUTLOOK_DOLLARS_MUA is included in 
__FORGED_OUTLOOK_DOLLARS without an exception for __HOTMAIL_BAYDAV_MSGID 
so __FORGED_OUTLOOK_DOLLARS causes a hit on FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK.

It seems to me, given this valid, non spam, non-ratware originating 
message, that __FORGED_OUTLOOK_DOLLARS needs to include an "&& !
__HOTMAIL_BAYDAV_MSGID" in the exception list.

P.S. I do see that trunk is handling this combination of headers in a 
fairly different manner.  But that doesn't change the fact that this MUA 
is causing false positives on 3.2, even with the latest (sa-
update_3.2_20081231172858 according to SVN) 3.2 udpate.
