RE: First submission questions

Hi Ryan, thanks for the submissions. I'm about to give them a quick going thru. The best place to ask these questions is right on the SURBL list discuss(a)lists.surbl.org I'm cc'ing this to the list. The more eyes on it the better. Redirects are handled differently. Post them to discussion list and they get added to a redirect list. The rule of thumb is like cooking: "When in doubt, throw it out." We would much rather not list a spammer, then list a shammer. Unless we decide together that the shammer is 95% spam with 1 legit customer. Then we might list them and inform the legit customer. Sometimes we don't all agree. Like political spam.

j-chkmail and SURBL
by Jose-Marcio.Martins＠ensmp.fr 12 Jul '04

12 Jul '04

Hello, j-chkmail is the filter I developed. It's completely written in C language. It's intended to use very few ressources and be very fast. Version 1.7 experimental has an interface for SURBL. I'm using it for two months now. There are two interfaces to SURBL : DNS and local database. DNS based queries are much easier to administrate, but local databases are faster. For the moment, only queries on local databases are validated. DNS queries is implemented but not yet validated. j-chkmail is free software, but with downloading is limited to registered users. To become a registered user, you shall accept to identify yourself : name, domain, ..., and have some responsibility on the domain you'll be using it (don't ask a license to hotmail.com, unless you're the hotmail.com system administrator... 8-). You can check it at : http://j-chkmail.ensmp.fr Best, Jose-Marcio -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Jose Marcio MARTINS DA CRUZ Tel. :(33) 01.40.51.93.41 Ecole des Mines de Paris http://j-chkmail.ensmp.fr 60, bd Saint Michel http://www.ensmp.fr/~martins 75272 - PARIS CEDEX 06 mailto:Jose-Marcio.Martins@ensmp.fr

Hand classification / Scripted submission
by Ryan Thompson 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

Hi All, 'Tis my first post to this list... so I'll try to make it a good one. I have a heap (and will continue to have future heaps) of spam with URIs that don't hit any of the SURBLs. We'll hand-classify the URIs, of course, but are there any objections to scripting the submission against http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi?report=1 ? The basic idea would be to run one automatic pass to analyze our SA headers to see if *_URI_BL rules already matched; if they don't, add the message to a processing queue. Then, for each URI in the each message of that queue, do the lookup again with Net::DNS, since the URI might have been added in the last 24 hours or so since the spam was received. This should hopefully produce a comparatively short list of URIs (and spams) that don't appear in the SURBL. From here, we can hand-classify this bunch (i.e., delete any that aren't spammer sites), and have our second-pass script strip the SA markup (if present) from the spam, and automatically submit the hand-picked URIs and their spams via the web interface. Questions: 1) Is this approach reasonable (i.e., am I going to hear screams from someone if I script this, assuming I take precautions, rate-limit the submissions, and check the results before turning it loose?) 2) Is there already a more efficient way to submit URIs? (Besides running my own list, which, I guess, isn't too unreasonable :-) 3) Is there any advantage to submitting the same URI more than once (i.e., from different spam messages?) It seems like the answer is probably "no", but I'll gladly accept enlightenment. 4) Should I be submitting to multiple SURBLs, or just stick with ws.surbl.org? Since implementing SURBLs in SA2.63 about a week ago, we've had amazing success. So much that we're having occasional word-wrap issues with the X-Spam-Level: (stars) header. :-) Now I want to give something back. - Ryan -- Ryan Thompson <ryan(a)sasknow.com> SaskNow Technologies - http://www.sasknow.com 901-1st Avenue North - Saskatoon, SK - S7K 1Y4 Tel: 306-664-3600 Fax: 306-244-7037 Saskatoon Toll-Free: 877-727-5669 (877-SASKNOW) North America

Steve, what you do with me is fine ;) These are people who keep reporting the same dang domain but all the IP addresses it comes from. Which are mostly zombied broadband machines!! So I get 20 submissions of the SAME spam, with the same one line URL in it, only they report each IP it came from!!! ARGH!!! And please, when using the SURBL submission page on SARE, try to include a copy of the spam, it helps get it added MUCH faster. Remember these are hand checked!! For those of you submitting them thru other methods to me, continue what your are doing. That is working fine. --Chris

For example, I use FreeBSD, then use the ports collection for everything in that, but since it doesn't have SpamCopURI, I could either use the CPAN install or the standard download, make, make install, etc. I use the wrapper program amavisd-new as well with a postfix mail server, so I have to integrate my SA/SpamCop install into amavis and that gave me some headaches, but maybe an uninstall & reinstall of the latest version of SA, make sure other things are up to date too. >From the source, here are the needed modules in perl: use URI; use URI::QueryParam; use URI::Escape use Text::Wrap (); use Mail::SpamAssassin::EvalTests; use Mail::SpamAssassin::SpamCopURI; use Mail::SpamAssassin::AutoWhitelist; use Mail::SpamAssassin::HTML; use Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf; use Mail::SpamAssassin::Received; use Mail::SpamAssassin::Util; use Mail::SpamAssassin::NetSet; There may be others needed, but these are obviously needed.

>Hi Steve, >Can you let us know what flavor Linux you are running, what version of perl >& SA, and how you are trying to install? Mitch, I'm running Gentoo Linux sparc (2.4.24-sparc-r2), This is perl, v5.8.2 built for sparc-linux, SA 2.63. I tried both CPAN install and source install. Neither of them run. I installed the SpamCopURI on a Linux Redhat box with SA 2.63 and it works just fine. So I was thinking it was a perl module problem. Thanks, Steve >From the source, here are the needed modules in perl: Hmmm I'll check to make sure those are all install.

Help with SpamCopURI-0.18
by Steve Dimoff 08 Jul '04

08 Jul '04

Hello, I've been trying to get SpamCopURI-0.18 working on my system and I've run into many problems. First I had to install LWP::UserAgent, which kept failing until I got everything it needed installed; after everything was installed I re-did the SpamCopURI-0.18 install. All tests were "ok" but when I copy over the spamcopuri.cf file I get this from spam assassin: Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri snurl.com *.snurl.com Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri snipurl.com *.snipurl.com Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri tinyclick.com *.tinyclick.com Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri babyurl.com *.babyurl.com Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri lin.kz *.lin.kz Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri *.v3.net Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri shorl.com *.shorl.com Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri tinyurl.com *.tinyurl.com Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration, skipping: open_redirect_list_spamcop_uri xurl.us Failed to compile URI SpamAssassin tests, skipping: (syntax error at /etc/mail/spamassassin/spamcop_uri.cf, rule SPAMCOP_URI_RBL, line 1, near "eval:" I tried searching the archive for support on this, but I only found one person posted this problem with no replies. Can anyone shed some light onto this? I'm guessing I'm missing a PERL Module somewhere but I don't know which one. Thanks, Steve

Roger, you wern't the only one. Page got less then halfway and I stopped it. Being a father of 2 it made me sick and angry. I reported it using www.missingkids.com 'cybertip line' . THis is where the trail ends. (FBI says call customs, customs says to call this number, number says to go here and this report gets sent out to all agencies. Whew! I hope they nail them to a wall. (Or let me in a room with them for 5 minutes!) --Chris >-----Original Message----- >From: Roger WJ Alterskjær [mailto:roger.alterskjaer@vm.ntnu.no] >Sent: Wednesday, July 07, 2004 9:24 AM >To: SURBL Discussion list >Subject: Re: [SURBL-Discuss] Help: kid pron.....help report > > >Wow! >I couldn't stomach letting the entire page load.

RE: [SURBL-Discuss] Another list to test: ab.surbl.org

Hi Chris, > Joseph, I'm running sa-stats which only pulls out the > numbers, what do you use to parse out the info you posted? On my test box I'm running MailScanner + SpamAssassin and a utility for MailScanner called MailWatch. Essentially this throws all the data from each message into a MySQL database and provides a php frontend. I've just made up a few php scripts to create summaries by pulling relevant log details from the MySQL db. Looking at the SURBL stats, the messages that are in the end marked HAM are borderline. Some of them are postmaster bounces or postmaster messages from other servers I maintain, others are questionable mailing lists or even spam sent via yahoo groups. >From my look into the "false positives" of the SURBL lists there's hardly a message that wouldn't be missed if it hit the bit bucket. Regards, Joseph
