URIDNSBL

[Mike Carlson <mi...@mcarlson.net>]

How do I know if SA is using URIDNSBL? 
 
I am running SA 3.0 on FreeBSD with MimeDefang and now emails are scoring very very low and some users are getting a ton of spam through. I want to make use of URIDNSBL if I can, but I am not sure if it is working or not.

Heh, that's easy: 99% of your spam will score on either of these tests:

 5.0 URIBL_SBL              Contains an URL listed in the SBL blocklist
                          
 5.0 URIBL_AB_SURBL         Contains an URL listed in the AB SURBL blocklist
                          
 5.0 URIBL_JP_SURBL         Contains an URL listed in the JP SURBL blocklist
                       
 5.0 URIBL_WS_SURBL         Contains an URL listed in the WS SURBL blocklist
                           
 5.0 URIBL_OB_SURBL         Contains an URL listed in the OB SURBL blocklist
                          
 5.0 URIBL_SC_SURBL         Contains an URL listed in the SC SURBL blocklist
                            
(yes, my scoring is agressive)

The more proper way of checking this is to run:

spamd -D

which will outputthis if you are loading URIDNSBL:

debug: plugin: loading Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::URIDNSBL from @INC
debug: plugin: registered Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::URIDNSBL=HASH(0x35ced0)
