RE: [SURBL-Discuss] multiple domains in spam body
by Scott Truman 13 Apr '04

Good point. There could be a setting for the max number of SURBL callouts. If they did decide to place a large number of 'legit' URLs, they would probably have to hide them using an invisible font, obsufication or some such, so the spamee could only click on the intended URL. However, with many hidden URLs, this would give spam detection engines (SpamAssassin) more spam material to act on, and additional rules could be added to the detection set. Bayesian analysis itself would more than likely pick this up with minimal training.

On line 25 of the dnsrbl.t file, change the IP address from 211.147.224.30 to 127.0.0.2. That seems to make the test complete properly... I think someone also said that it was fixed in the next version, but one of the developers should be able to confirm that... k

SURBL test

I'm in the process of building SpamCopURI 0.09 on a Tru64 UNIX v5.1B box using Perl 5.8.3. The 'make test' phase failed on only one test: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/ucb/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/bad..............ok t/blacklist........ok t/cache............ok t/dnsrbl...........ok 4/6# Failed test (t/dnsrbl.t at line 25) t/dnsrbl...........NOK 5# Looks like you failed 1 tests of 6. t/dnsrbl...........dubious Test returned status 1 (wstat 256, 0x100) DIED.

Given that the test at line 25 of t/dnsrbl.t goes to "http://211.147.224.30/baddy" and when I telnet to that address, port 80, it refuses my connection, can I safely assume that all went well and install the software?

What list does ws.surbl.org represent?
by ITReading ITReading 13 Apr '04

13 Apr '04

I'm sure this has already been clarified, but I think I may not have joined the list when it was mentioned. Does ws.surbl.org reflect the contents of "sa-blacklist-uri.cf" or "sa-blacklist" or both? Thanks! Charles
