Hehe, I assumed *you* guys had the ccTLD magic bullet. ;-)
Will check it out! (I hate to ask but is there any kind
of direct URL access into SVN so I don't need to install
the entire structure?)
An open request to everyone: if you know of or can find any
registrar lists of ccTLDs that are not already in our list:
http://spamcheck.freeapp.net/two-level-tlds
then please forward them to me for addition. I think we're
lacking places like Deutschland .de and Italia .it, and probably
some smaller ones also.
N.B. found at http://www.denic.de/de/domains/index.html
and added:
moebel.de
glueckwunsch.de
buecher.de
boerse.de
kueche.de
buero.de
fluege.de
kuechen.de
aerzte.de
reisebuero.de
Surely there are many more. (Those look strange without
Umlauten... :-)
This is for country code TLDs which should themselves be
whitelisted. Doing so allows us to check the third levels after
them. Therefore we want:
category.country
but not
domain.country
where an abstract category is like doctors, a city name, etc.
where a potential spammer would register at a lower level like
spamming.doctor.be or spamming-subdomain.london.uk . We don't
want to whitelist spammer.uk so please don't include registered
base domains that terminate at the second level.
TIA for any help with this,
Jeff C.
