So if I'm double scoring, can't I just remove the SBL, Blitzedall, and CBL lists entirely from my global.cfg?

At 02:47 PM 3/8/2005, you wrote:
The SBL-XBL includes the SBL, Blitzedall and the CBL list, so you are double-scoring the CBL list.
For the SBL-XBL here are the return codes:
SBL = 127.0.0.2 return code
CBL = 127.0.0.4 return code
BLITZEDALL = 127.0.0.6 return code


So either:
SBL  dnsbl   %IP4R%.sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org     127.0.0.2       7 0
CBL  dnsbl   %IP4R%.sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org     127.0.0.4       6 0
BLITZEDALL   dnsbl   %IP4R%.sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org     127.0.0.5       7 0

or
BLITZEDALL      ip4r    opm.blitzed.org                 *               7  0
CBL             ip4r    cbl.abuseat.org                 127.0.0.2       6 0
SBL             ip4r    sbl.spamhaus.org                *               7 0

Thanks for all the help everyone. So far so good, users are noticing the improvement. I added sniffer to the arsenal earlier today, and it's amazing how much more it's picking up. VERY VERY few false positives at all in the first four days of my trial with Declude/Sniffer.

However, I added a few more DNSBLs that one of you suggested last week. My global.cfg now looks like this:

As for actions, I am currently holding 10-14, redirecting 15-19, and deleting >20. Now this seemed to work great before, but now that I added a few more DNSBLs, my scores are much higher obviously. I'm curious if this is a BAD thing, or if it just confirms that if a message is on several blacklists, it SHOULD have a high score and be deleted. Thoughts on this? I basically guessed on the weights for the top 9 blacklists that I added manually...

Thanks.

Joey

It is my understanding that is a global command and is only supported in the
global.cfg file.

Does LOOSENSPAMHEADERS ON have to go in the global.cfg? What if I want to do this for one domain but not for others? Is there any way to accomplish this?

Thanks,
