[Rtir] MakeClicky weirdness

Hello,

we have found a strange behaviour in .../html/RTIR/Elements/MakeClicky 
we have traced to the "host" discovery (it goes away when commenting out 
the 'Fdomain' regular expression) but are unable to identify.

We receive a lot of messages where the TLD of host names is all capital 
letters, e.g. <host.domain.Sun.COM>. Now - these host names are 
completely removed form messages when displayed in RTIR!

When they are <host.domain.sun.com>, this does not happen and MakeClicky 
substitutes the correct Lookup URL. We initially suspected an 
incompatibility with the 'GRIPE' entry [the only one checking for caps], 
but commenting this one out does not resolve the issue.

Anyone any idea?

BTW: TLDs can have more than 3 chars by now, e.g. .info ;-)

< Fdomain      => [ q[(?:[\w-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,3}], $cb{host}  ],
 > Fdomain      => [ q[(?:[\w-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,4}], $cb{host}  ],

Best regards,

	Ruediger Riediger
