Potential FP in OB - conventionbloggers.com

conventionbloggers.com is listed in OB. I can't see why it should be SURBL listed... unless we're using political criteria... Patrik

[SURBL-Discuss] Please beta test ms.surbl.org - data from MailSecurity
by Jeff Chan 04 Aug '04

04 Aug '04

David Hooton has made available to us MailSecurity's spamvertised site data for public use. I have turned that data into a SURBL list for testing: ms.surbl.org This is the same company that has provided the phishing data currently in multi.surbl.org. Please do corpus checks, etc. but don't use it on high volume mail servers yet since it's only hosted on my mail server right now. Please let us know what spam detection rates you get and particularly about false positive rates. At this point we don't know if the data will stay a separate list, be added to multi only, get folded into ws, etc. The results you report will help us decide that. Jeff C.

ANNOUNCE: Mail::SpamAssassin::SpamCopURI 0.20
by Eric Kolve 04 Aug '04

04 Aug '04

Just released SpamCopURI 0.20. Biggest change is support for multi.surbl.org. Let me know if you see anything strange. See the change notes below for what you need to do for your config. 0.20 Sat Jul 31 22:02:20 PDT 2004 - adding max url config param to limit number of URLs checked in an email. Usage (place into .cf file): spamcop_uri_limit 50 Default is unlimited. - adding support for multi.surbl.org / bitmasked results. query results are cached on a per msg basis to prevent additional lookups. Modify your configuration to look like the following for sc.surbl.org: uri SPAMCOP_URI_RBL eval:check_spamcop_uri_rbl('multi.surbl.org','127.0.0.0/2') describe SPAMCOP_URI_RBL URI's domain appears in spamcop database at sc.surbl.org tflags SPAMCOP_URI_RBL net ws.surbl.org would look like this: uri WS_URI_RBL eval:check_spamcop_uri_rbl('multi.surbl.org','127.0.0.0/4') describe WS_URI_RBL URI's domain appears in ws database at ws.surbl.org tflags WS_URI_RBL net - Removed configuration params: spamcop_uri_src and spamcop_uri_path since these should never be used anymore. - added cleanup for hosts that come in with a dot in front of of the host (e.g. http://.spammy-site.org) http://sourceforge.net/projects/spamcopuri/ --eric

TTL/turnaround times for SURBL
by Rob McEwen 04 Aug '04

04 Aug '04

RE: TTL/turnaround times for SURBL This discussion seems to have gotten drowned out by other recent discussions. I'd like to see where this stands at this point. In particular, Jeff noted that Outblaze updates their data very fast in response to fast analysis of their spam-trap data. But the OutBlaze feed at SURBL get updated every six hours? Doesn't that defeat the purpose. Would it be possible to speed up the ob.surbl.org refresh so that we can reap more benefits from their quick responsiveness? Also, it was mentioned that the sc.surbl.org data updates every ten minutes? Is there really substantial new or different data in this feed to justify this? (in other words, is there a system where very, very new data causes quick updates to sc.surbl.org) Finally, has any progress been made speeding up the refresh times for multi.surbl.org? Rob McEwen

[SURBL-Discuss] Selectively looking up the IPs to which uri's resolve
by Rich Graves 04 Aug '04

04 Aug '04

As postmaster, I see a lot of double-bounces for a user who forwards their mail to a server that implements the policy: 550 5.7.1 mail containing 8aa.tXokG4N.fagonyenomy.org rejected - sbl; see http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=201.3.240.234 They appear to be using the milter mentioned in http://www.surbl.org/faq.html#numbered Sure, fagonyenomy.org is in sc.surbl.org now, but these cretins register new domains pointing at the same IPs on a (at least) daily basis, and there is a time lag. The site they were spamming about this morning, thebest-search.com.sc.surbl.org, exists only on ob.surbl.or, not sc or ws. For the reasons mentioned in the FAQ, I do not agree with uri-to-ip-based blacklisting as a blanket policy, but it does seem very effective in dealing with these rapidly morphing porn spammers. I would like to give such a rule a SA score of 4 or so. In order to implement this nicely, I see a need for a *per surbl* switch in SpamCopURI telling it whether to look up the domain, or the domain as resolved to an IP. Configured something like uri SPAMCOP_URI_RBL eval:check_spamcop_uri_rbl('sc.surbl.org','127.0.0.2') uri SPAMHAUS_URI eval:check_spamcop_uri_rbl('sbl.spamhaus.org','127.0.0.2','ip') Obviously there is no point in looking up fagonyenomy.org in spamhaus, nor do I want to look up all resolved IPs in all surbls needlessly. I could write completely separate code to do this, but I'd like to reuse the url and redirector parsing infrastructure. Unfortunately I don't see a clean way to do this without changing the internal hash structure. Ideas? Should I just wait for (or start experimenting with now) SA3's uridnsbl and urirhsbl, which were designed for this? Yeah, that's what I was afraid of... I think I just answered my own question, but I'm curious what others think and how others are dealing with this spam gang. I can't wait for a big ISP to hit them with the big clue stick. -- Rich Graves <rcgraves(a)brandeis.edu> UNet Systems Administrator
