Hi
Matt:

types <<
Which means once THEY see a URL they use SURBL to RESEARCH
it.
Obviously, that leaves any URLs that THEY have not yet seen (both
other people have). There are an unknown number of URLs in SURBL that
Sniffer has not yet encountered, thus couldn't research
it...
As
far as something being wrong... You are entitled to your opinion.
Sniffer is working great here - but it's not 100% effective in my
environment. I'm happy it is in your's and that you don't need to run
any other tests.
My
declude is set up so that any message that fails a combination of OTHER
tests but didn't fail SNIFFER get's a certain header flag, which then get
"flagged" in Outlook for easy recognition. And just for my personal
mailbox alone, I probably see 5 to 10 messages each day that Sniffer did NOT
yet tag. I have no reason to get into an argument with you. Whether
you doubt my experience or not - but it doesn't change MY
experience.
Best Regards

Let me
re-summarize because I think that both you and Andy misunderstood
different elements of what I said.
First, Sniffer doesn't miss 11%
of spam unless there was something wrong. The stats provided were
likely inaccurate for one reason or another.
Second, Sniffer does
cross checking with SURBL for creating new rules of certain types, though
I'm not sure what the totality of the lists used. One should be
aware of the potential of double hitting based on pretty much the same
data and weight accordingly.

My fault for mixing up names in this case. I was thinking about the
combined URIBL zone and not your version of the checker. The issue that
I was really intending to speak to was the combined zone
(multi.surbl.org) that some people are using over SURBL alone.
Multi is a bit-masked URIBL. It will return a single response for a single
test match or multiple test match. The only difference in using multi
versus the individual tests is a single query versus multiple. If you don't
want to use all of the tests available via multi, don't define them all.
