[Bug 6932] New: SA is using an RBL, which is closing down

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6932

            Bug ID: 6932
           Summary: SA is using an RBL, which is closing down
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Rules
          Assignee: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
          Reporter: wyrm.white@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified

Spamassassin uses dnsbl.njabl.org, but dnsbl.njabl.org is empty and is going to
close down for good very soon (visit their site for proofs).
All notices of this RBL should be erased from SA rules.

Yet still listed on https://spamassassin.apache.org/downloads.cgi as if it were
reasonable to use.  And I think no indication anywhere on the website that it's
not a good idea?

I had to manually add string
score __RCVD_IN_NJABL 0
into local.cf file, this resolved the case.

Please confirm you're using SA 3.2.5 which is obsolete and unsupported.

Please run :

spamassassin -V

and post results

I might be up for helping with that, but I'm not sure where I'd start.
What about removing those remaining pages to the wiki?  Maybe with a more
strict ACL?

Agreed.  It's a problem that we need someone to work on but too many fish to
fry.  Anyone want to help change the website to svnpubsub and make some
updates?

http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/ReleaseGoals is the only place that I
believe reflects the outdatedness of 3.2.5.
