Hi,
Since UPPERCASE_URI has a score of 4.2 we get sometimes false positives
(spamassassin-4.0.1).
For example a HTML newsletter with relative links can trigger UPPERCASE_URI if
the ankor name has mixed letters followed by a semicolon:
HTML in the body:
<a href="#_BMFTR:_Innovative_Data">...</a>
...
<a name="_BMFTR:_Innovative_Data"></a>
Leads to:
dbg: uri: canonicalizing html uri: #_BMFTR:_Innovative_Data
dbg: uri: cleaned uri: #_BMFTR:_Innovative_Data
dbg: rules: ran uri rule UPPERCASE_URI ======> got hit: "#_BMFTR:"
The rule is intended to match the protocol and it isn't strict enough
about format matching.
Fixing, and setting a score limit, but masscheck is spam-starved at the
moment and I cannot guarantee how quickly the fix will be published.

If the rock of doom requires a gentle nudge away from Gaia to
prevent a very bad day for Earthlings, NASA won’t be riding to the
rescue. These days, NASA does dodgy weather research and outreach
programs, not stuff in actual space with rockets piloted by
flinty-eyed men called Buzz. -- Daily Bayonet
