[Bug 5818] New: FUZZY_CREDIT rule fires for german word "kreditinstitut"

http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5818

           Summary: FUZZY_CREDIT rule fires for german word "kreditinstitut"
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.1.7
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: spamassassin@pop2wap.net


Using the quite common german word "Kreditinstitut" which means credit
institution is interpreted as an attempt to obfuscate the word "credit".  A
quite high score is assigned to this rule by default.  As words beginning with
"kredit" are quite common in german, this shouldn't be happening (or have a much
lower score at least).
