== SpamAssassin Rule: WHOIS_DMNBYPROXY ==

''Standard description:'' Contains URL registered to Domains by Proxy

=== Explanation ===

Domain names are extracted from any URL found the body of the mail and looked up, via DNS, using
[http://www.open-whois.org/ bl.open-whois.org].  This lists domains that have been registered
through services that allow private, or anonymous, registrations.

If the lookup returns 127.0.0.15 this means it was registered using ''Domains by Proxy''.

=== Further Information ===

The default scores for this rule can be found [http://spamassassin.apache.org/tests.html in the online list of tests].
This rule uses the URIDNSBL plugin.
