Roberto,

Will the SURBL pick up a URL that is obfuscated as:

http://eProNAR=2Ecom

I am seeing a lot of urls and address formed this way.  I have a filter, for now, that looks like: ((?i)http://.*=2ecom)  But it seems to me that there is a good chance of false positives with this RegEx.

Regards,

Is that the actual syntax (=2E) rather than the period? Yes or no, SpamFilter won't catch it, we're looking for URI separators that don't include the "=". We're definetly going to try to catch these as well in the near future.

YES!  They are using the =2E to "make" a period.  Sneaky So in Sos!

That's why I was asking... the =2E *should* not work, as it's %2e that translates to the period. But it's late and I *am* falling asleep... so could very well be already dreaming.

Got it, working on it to see if there's anything that can be done (and trying to see why the "=" works as you say...!
