--- Comment #1 from Bill Cole <billc...@apache.org> ---
Normally rule FPs are not considered bugs per se, since they it is expected
that spam rules will match on some ham and nice rules will match on some spam,
with the *AGGREGATE* scores being what matters. In principle, rules get
rescored algorithmically based on their quality as reported in masscheck
reports. HOWEVER, this rule inexplicably has been pegged at fairly high scores
for almost 10 years in 50_scores.cf, immune to RuleQA:

score TVD_APPROVED 2.356 2.599 2.599 2.090 # n=2

Current and recent RuleQA results cannot justify that, so I have removed the
fixed scores in r1865956. I expect the rule will be scored down on the next
rescoring run. 


Modifying the rule to not span lines would make it not match much of the spam
that it has matched in the past, so it is not clear that there would be any
point to a modified rule.
