Please be advised that the administrators at SURBL will be removing the zone
files from the web site.  This will affect the folks that are using the
script that downloads the zone files and creates a Declude filter file.

Below is the note from the SURBL discuss list.  Any questions let me know.

Subject: [SURBL-Announce] SURBL zone files to be removed from web site


> I will be removing the partial set of SURBL zone files (SC and
> WS) from the SURBL web site by 7 Febuary 2005.  This will mainly
> effect users of Roger Eriksson's Windows command script which
> downloads the SC zone file using wget then checks SUBRL domains
> against message bodies in Declude JunkMail.  It should not affect
> most other users of SURBLs, since other applications use the
> preferred DNS lookups to get SURBL data.  This change does not
> affect SURBL name servers or name service, nor are any changes
> required to them or applications that use their services.
>
> The files will probably be deleted and replaced with a custom
> error message, which hopefully will show up in logs of the
> script.  Darrell of Invariant Systems will also be mentioning
> this on Declude discussion groups.
>
> As an alternative for users of the command script, SURBLs can be
> checked in Declude Junkmail using invURIBL, as mentioned in an
> earlier announcement, and the DNS method it uses is definitely
> preferred.
>
> Here is that part of the earlier announcement:
>
> 12/31/04: Invariant Systems has written a Windows URI
> extraction tool invURIBL which can check message body URIs
> against SURBLs. It can be used standalone or as plugin to any
> Windows mail server that can call an external application and
> process the return code. For example, it is finding use with
> Declude for Imail.

> Probably other plug-in type filters which support SURBLs can be
> used with Declude Junkmail and other similar mail programs.
