           Summary: FB_LETTERS_21B false positive
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.2.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bugzilla@dirk.mueller.name


Hi, 

I've run accross a message that had a unified diff attachment (a patch) that 
triggered this rule: 

body     FB_LETTERS_21B           /-- [a-z]{21}/

I'm not sure what this rule is supposed to do, since I was unable to find
a single message in my spam corpus being catched here, however I guess that it 
should be something like 

body     FB_LETTERS_21B           /\b-- [a-z]{21}\b/

instead.
