I don't think that's accurate, otherwise the censorship would have been happening earlier. The mechanism that blocked the cock.li domain is the blacklist. Spamassassin is a separate project than Ubuntu, which loads the blacklists by default. The blacklists are, in turn, separate projects. Personally, as mentioned earlier, I am not a fan of blacklists. They are too easy to get on, and too difficult to get off of. They seem to have close to no ability to respond to reports of false positives (i.e., when a domain ends up on a blacklist, but should not be). Good riddance to the blacklists for the cpunks list! ~ Greg
