           Summary: HTML_BADTAG FP due to xml prefixed elements.
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version)
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Rules (Eval Tests)
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Some HTML email uses xml prefixed elements, such as <st1:City>.  These
aren't recognized as valid and result in HTML_BADTAG false positives.

With the attached patch, any tag containing a ":" will be considered
valid (not bad).  This will eliminate the false positives but will not
catch any truly bad tag containing a ":".  I don't see that as much of
a problem since any spammer that would put a ":" in a tag to evade the
BADTAG rules with the proposed patch could just as easily obfuscate
with valid tags.
