Thank you Pushing an updated DB out now.

I wish the owners of hotmail, etc. would not continue to put new domains as footers.

Hello

The sig winnow.phish.cm.microsoft.hc.275895 causes many FP that mark
legitimate Hotmail/Live mails as potential spam ...

It decodes as :

http://www[DOT]messengersurvotremobile[DOT]com/

(replace [DOT] with . :) )

This is a legitimate Microsoft domain (as per registrar tucows), web site
and Url, and this url is placed in some Microsoft Live/Hotmail messages
footers as simple advertising link (generaly as a footer link).

Regards

Francis
