[Bug 551655] [NEW] open-whois.org is cybersquatted and its rules should be removed from Spamassassin

[Paweł Tęcza]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: spamassassin

Recently I've noticed that a lof of non-spam messages I receive pass Spamassassin
DNS_FROM_OPENWHOIS test. I googled a bit and found following related Debian
BTS report:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=537477

It seems that open-whois.org is cybersquatted and its rules should be removed
from Spamassassin as soon as it's possible.

Please note that the open-whois.org rules has been purged in
Spamassassin 3.3.0:

I use Spamassassin 3.2.5-4ubuntu0.0.1 under Ubuntu Jaunty, but I can see that Karmic
has the same version of Spamassassin.
