We have just released a new beta version of Declude JunkMail v1.21. It can
be found at http://www.declude.com/JunkMail/manual.htm .
It has several new features:
o It has a new action, BEEP. Likely not very useful, but it's there.
o A new DNS-based test type, "rhsbl", similar to the ip4r tests. The ip4r
tests (such as RBL) would check the IP address of the remote mail
server. The rhsbl tests (such as the new DSN test) check the domain of the
return address (RHS means "Right Hand Side" of the "@" sign). The DSN test
will catch E-mail coming from a domain that does NOT accept E-mail from
"<>" (which violates the RFCs and causes more work for other mail
servers). This is not likely to catch much spam, and will likely catch a
fair amount of legitimate mail. But, it paves the way for new rhsbl tests,
which Declude can now handle immediately without needing an update to Declude.
o A new test, "REVDNS", that will check to see if a reverse DNS entry
exists for the remote mail server. It is rumored that AOL and several
large ISPs bounce all mail from mail servers that have no reverse DNS
entry, so this may be useful.
o The WARN action can now use your own text, and use some new
variables. For example, you can have "RBL WARN X-RBL-Warning: Listed in
RBL (%WARNING%)". The %WARNING% variable includes the warning text
("127.0.0.2 is a potential spam source", for example). %TESTNAME% and
%TESTDOMAIN% are self explanatory ("ORBSINPUTS" and
"inputs.orbs.org"). %REVDNS% has the reverse DNS ("mail.some_domain.com"),
and %REMOTEIP% has the IP address of the remote mail server ("127.0.0.2").
Enjoy!
