            Bug ID: 7954
           Summary: My Company Name URI rule "Try it" URI, suspicious
                    hostname
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 2.20
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Mac OS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Learner
          Assignee: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
          Reporter: nsudduth@getmoremath.com
  Target Milestone: Undefined

My company Get More Math! has been emailing leads for over 5 years and recently
we learned that the URI_TRY_3LD rule is lowering the score of our emails to
SPAM level, via https://www.mail-tester.com/test-zwocfnaad

IN our email, we use links to our website like this
https://getmoremath.com/pilot-2023

Then I get this result.
-1.999  URI_TRY_3LD     "Try it" URI, suspicious hostname

If I remove all links to my company, and link to Yahoo or something, I get a
9.9/10 score.
--
The famous spam filter SpamAssassin. Score: -1.4.
A score below -5 is considered spam.

Can https://getmoremath.com/ be added to a while list or something? 
We don't want to change the name of our company.

What do you advise?

Thanks so much!

My advice? Don't worry about it.

The object is not to get a score of zero. The object is to keep your score
below the threshold of 5. SA uses *many* rules to evaluate a message for
spamminess. If it hits a few but your score is below the threshold, then you're
*not spam*.

As long as you don't start doing other things that look spammy and hit other
rules as well and push the score above 5, you'll be fine.

I see what's hitting and why it's causing a problem; I will add an exclusion.
