How to disable IADB

Hi,

One of my users gets lots of similar UCE, and learning doesn't help
a bit. Investigating the report headers, it seems the mails trigger
'IADB' rules, which seems to be a RBL whitelist.
( 70_iadb.cf & 20_dnsbl_tests.cf)

Is there a way to disable this 'feature', without editting those files?

Regards,

How about:

perl -n -e 'if(/(score RCVD_IN_IADB\w*)/){ print "$1 0\n" }' \ 
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001003/updates_spamassassin_org/70_iadb.cf > \ 
/etc/mail/spamassassin/disable_iadb.cf

Technically the only one that matters is __RCVD_IN_IADB:

score __RCVD_IN_IADB 0

The rest look at the results generated by that rule, so if that rule doesn't
run ...

patches to make rule groups welcome. :)

  Oke, of course. There are however 28 such rules at the moment.

  grep IADB /var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/*/* | grep score | wc
       28      87    2879

  They all get tested every time.

  I'd hoped for a 'skip_rbl_checks alike' check, or something.

  Thanks anyways,

Set the rule scores to 0.
