We run 'antispamseeder.exe' daily on messages designated as spam to extract URLs for 
the 'url-domain-bl.txt' file. As part of the extraction process, 'antispamseeder.exe' 
generates non-compliant URL 'fragments' (for lack of a better word). A sampling of the 
fragments from our 'url-domain-bl.txt' file are (there are many, many more):

_fatacmt.yscdpe
_ude.eope
_hdiecyr.rwrxpe
_carenth.'re
_avorik.ofrure
_abel.exclaiming.adulate
_vince.compete
_lfira.nenhte
_kfii.oite'
_nf.bmue
_loope.ulgkewe
_hsabsp.triiwe
_vanrdo.isbuxe
_eddvaio.nize
_ivuheqb.byrze
_what're.org
_they're.org
_com-click.comph
_academia.%ng_url
_theoretic.webm
_leftrightaboutturn..com
_didn't.com
_couldn't.com
_leadbullet..net
_�x�w�Ыκ���.tw
_�x�w�Цa��.tw

NOTE: underscore prefixed to each fragment to prevent them from getting trapped by the 
antispam engine.

Since 'antispamseeder.exe' extracted these non-compliant URL 'fragments', we kept them 
in the 'url-domain-bl.txt' file thinking that the antispam engine would still match on 
them. Does anybody know if that is true? Will they cause any problems if left in the 
file? Or, should they be deleted from the 'url-domain-bl.txt' file? How does everyone 
else handle these 'fragments'? Just wondering...

Thanks in advance,
