[Bug 6859] New: ASN plugin should run on URI's too

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6859

          Priority: P2
            Bug ID: 6859
          Assignee: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
           Summary: ASN plugin should run on URI's too
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: fche@elastic.org
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
           Version: 3.3.2
         Component: Plugins
           Product: Spamassassin

For a spamming-oriented domain / hosting service, it is possible to spray out a
bunch of spam ads with embedded URI's pointing to themselves, before the
URIDNSBL services catch up and blacklist them.  It would be handy if the
spamassassin machines could do a bit of this themselves, by identifying the ASN
not only for the email originators, but also the IP addresses associated with
web site URLs mentioned in the emails.

Then, ASNs associated with website spams could gradually be learned by the
bayes system to build one's own URIBL.

See also bug #5655, which should be considered a prerequisite for this one.
