[Bug 5475] New: 20_ratware.cf : __AOL_FROM rule outdated

http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5475

           Summary: 20_ratware.cf : __AOL_FROM rule outdated
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.1.8
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: g.tomassoni@libero.it


The __AOL_FROM rule seems to be outdated since AOL has spawn some new gTLD-
ased sites, like aol.it, aol.co.uk and aol.fr.

I don't know if AOL is going to get a domain in all the available gTLDs, but I 
would suggest to change it this way:

	From:addr =~ /\@(?:aol|cs)\.(?:it|fr|co\.uk|com)$/i

or this way:

	From:addr =~ /\@(?:aol|cs)\.(?:[a-z]{2}|co\.uk|com)$/i

Alternatively, if AOL is effectively planning to buy a domain in every and 
each gTLD, it could even the case to remove the rule.

Created an attachment (id=4071)
 --> (http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/attachment.cgi?id=4071&action=view)
easy fix

easy fix: allow any @aol.* address.  spammers could conceivably create
<fo...@aol.spammercompany.com> addresses to send their spam, but since it's not
whitelisting, just an exemption from FORGED_MUA_AOL_FROM, it won't help them
much ;)

I found this in my SA rules: SARE_FROM_BADAOL.

Please also note I use sa-update, so it may be that this rule is also supplied 
by SA 3.2.1.

Moving items off the 3.2.1 queue to 3.2.2 to facilitate a quick release.
If you can get this in Review status right away feel free to move it back

Not yet sure if we care (I don't know what metas depend on __AOL_FROM), aim at
3.2.1 for now.
