webpronews.com fp in ws
by Jeff Chan 17 Aug '04

webpronews.com is an fp in ws. I've whitelisted it in SURBLs but please remove it from ws, and trace back the source. webpronews.com is in the bonded sender program and another domain belonging to ientry.com. I've separately asked ientry.com for a list of their domains to whitelist beyond: ientry.com ientry.net ientrymail.com webpronews.com Jeff C.

While I'm all for automation, but please be extremely careful. Take it from someone who knows, harvesting domains from scripts will lead to headaches. Like Jeff said, there is other encoding to deal with. URL poison. links that don't have http or www in them. ("Paste this into your browser......", btw SARE is working on that now.) I'm thinking the best way would be to take the actual SURBL code, and use it to rip out domains. But the SA code to unencode the email would be needed as well. Putting this in the email pipe would be best. If spam if not found in SURBL run SURBL extract + append to file :) --Chris

This was back in June. Came from Steve. Removed. I've changed the review process of Steve's domains since then. So far all have been from back in June. If I get a second I'll go thru them again, but there was a TON!

Callatg.com was in Steve's June submissions. Removed. There is something like 7289 domains in that file from June :) So far about 4 FPs. Not that bad. Again, new submissions go thru more scrutiny then before. So no worries on recent ones. --Chris >-----Original Message----- >From: Jeff Chan [mailto:jeffc@surbl.org] >Sent: Thursday, August 12, 2004 11:16 AM >To: SURBL Discuss >Subject: [SURBL-Discuss] fp whitelisted: callatg.com, others > > >I've whitelisted: > >atgi.net >callatg.com >advancedtelcom.com > >All of which belong to the same legitimate company. >They make telephone switch hardware, etc. and I knew >someone who worked there. > >callatg.com was on ws.
