Re: [Declude.JunkMail] WHITELIST HABEAS
Do most people use WHITELIST HABEAS? I'm thinking of turning this off since the large majority of spammers have already demonstrated their willingness to ignore the legality of their activities. That's kind of like asking if you should move your store to another town, since the store next to yours was robbed yesterday, and a lot of people in your town drive over the speed limit. Moving out of town would be a very bad business move without further information. One of the key pieces of information would be how the police handle the situation. If they catch the criminal the next day and punish him in a way that is fair but discourages other criminals from robbing stores, would you really want to leave? -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] WHITELIST HABEAS
But Scott, do you leave your front door unlocked if there is a bugler actively on the lose? Could you move this from whitelisting to weighting in order to help protect from such things for non-Pro users? That might make a lot of sense. This is just some header code, and that's all it takes.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] WHITELIST HABEAS
It's unsafe to whitelist in general unless you have control over what is sending, or a good relationship with the sender. Habeas is totally not that. This should be a weighted test instead of something that gets whitelisted. Maybe Scott could move this to the same type functionality used in technical tests, where you can apply weights. Other have been using JunkMail Pro with filters to deduct points for a headers search. Personally, I have turned all of that off, and it's most definitely being abused right now.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] WHITELIST HABEAS
Good point and I do agree with one minor counter point ... we have little to no feedback about how *the police are handling the situation.* I reported the incident to Habeas and here's a snippet from their response: [Please know that at Habeas we take the use of our trademark in spam very seriously, and that while we cannot report back to you directly and individually on the disposition of each submission, know that we will investigate and follow this through to a satisfactory conclusion - either the responsible party ceasing their infringing action, their being appropriately dealt with by their service provider, or, failing any satisfactory remedial action, listing in our Habeas Infringers List.] Larry - Original Message - From: R.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] WHITELIST HABEAS
Declude sure is a Swiss Army Knife... I want to see Habeas succeed, and I think that misuse of their warrant by a spammer through zombies is going to be a real test for them. Their business model is built around suing a SpamHaus or a misbehaved mailing house (like Topica, to pick something at random). Here's what I do: I use their ip4r test to catch mail from any mail host that Habeas has indicated is a problem: HIL ip4r hil.habeas.com 127.0.0.2 40 0 And to proceed with finding their warrant in the header, reward it, and log it, I have: MYHABEAS filter C:\IMail\Declude\MyHabeas.txt x 0 0 which contains: REVDNS END ENDSWITH .habeas.com HEADERS -10 CONTAINS X-Habeas-SWE-3: like Habeas SWE (tm) The reason for the first line in the filter file is that I'm not interested in logging e-mail from Habeas.com that contains their own warrant. Now I can search my log for MYHABEAS to find the good guys and bad guys. And then report the original email from the bad guys to Habeas. What I'm finding is that the bad guys are scoring quite high and that the Habeas counterweight is having relatively little effect on their score. And for the legitimate bulk mailers that are using the warrant, none are scoring high enough to be held in my configuration. So YOU, gentle reader, might find that simply not using any Habeas counterweighting will work for you just fine. Andrew 8) -Original Message- From: R.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] WHITELIST HABEAS
We're getting a LOT of spam with HABEAS headers, presumably because the spammers are using hijacked systems. We have had to turn off that feature. As long as systems can be hijacked, Habeas and SPF won't be worth very much. Do most people use WHITELIST HABEAS?
