Julian has announced the release of MailScanner 4.52 stable, which brings some more improvements to the phishing filters:
There is now an option in the Phishing Net settings that will make it slightly less strict. If you have a web server email.domain.com pretending to be www.domain.com it will not complain as the “domain.com” strings match.
It also knows a pretty complete list of all the second level domains used by many countries. So email.domain.org.uk and www.domain.org.uk will match. But www.domain1.org.uk and www.domain2.org.uk will _not_ match. This is because it knows that “.org.uk” is a generic domain name used by the UK to cover a whole group of different websites (UK non-profits).
