This is the lists i use at the moment:

# sc.surbl.org - SpamCop message-body URI domains # ws.surbl.org - sa-blacklist domains as a SURBL # be.surbl.org - BigEvil and MidEvil domains # ob.surbl.org - OutBlaze spamvertised sites # ab.surbl.org - AbuseButler spamvertised sites

I wonder if any of my following rulesets is overlapping the SURBL-lists and should be removed?

I have the following rulesets:

70_sare_adult.cf 70_sare_random.cf 70_sare_specific.cf 72_sare_bml_post25x.cf antidrug.cf backhair.cf bigevil.cf chickenpox.cf evilnumbers.cf tripwire.cf weeds.cf

Hi Martin, On behalf of everyone contributing to the SURBL poject, thanks for your kind words. Glad you're finding SURBLs useful.

Chris or one of the SARE guys will know a lot more about the specific SARE rules, but I know that the domains in bigevil.cf are in be.surbl.org, so you may be able to get rid of bigevil.cf. For that matter the records in be.surbl.org are now in ws.surbl.org, so you can get rid of be.surbl.org also.

Chris & Co are probably creating a heavily wildcarded ruleset that you may want to use in future in addition to SURBLs.

1. Get rid of bigevil.cf, it's mostly in be.surbl.org 2. Get rid of be.surbl.org, it's in ws.surbl.org
