We'd like to welcome and thank three new public name servers administered by:
Jake Zack of avalonworks.com Tony Copeland of uncw.edu Joe Boyce of shasta.com
I think some other people may have offered to serve up the SURBL zones publically, and any help spreading the load around further will be appreciated. It looks like use of SURBLs could take off especially as SpamAssassin 3.0 has built in support for them using urirhsbl.
If anyone else would like to serve zones publically, please contact Raymond and I at rsync at surbl.org .
I should mention that we are now adding a zone with about 40k entries, ob.surbl.org, and we will also ask to serve a combined list multi.surbl.org soon. Multi will have the same number of entries as the largest list. Currently that's ws.surbl.org with under 20k entries, but multi will go to 40k when we add in ob in. sc.surbl.org remains at around 500 entries but could change when I get around to working on the new data engine. We will try to deprecate be.surbl.org since its domains are now in ws. We're still working out the details of what happens to be after that happens.
More information on the lists can be found at:
http://www.surbl.org/lists.html
though I have not documented ob there yet.
We are also looking into some other potential spam URI data sources such as proxypots, etc.:
Cheers,
Jeff C.
