Wow, Dave.
Talk about "your mileage may vary"...
My traffic has a huge overlap between MXRate-BL and
what Message Sniffer hits.
Total hits for Message Sniffer: 26,504
Total hits for MXRate-BL: 5,746
Total hits for MXRateBL which also hit Sniffer:
5,697
We also had 21 hits on MXRate-BL for messages we allowed
in; 1 was a message that was spam from a bulk emailer. There were 3 more
from ISPs that I think shouldn't be listed. The remaining 17 were all
specific lists that we heavily counterweight because the users do not consider
those particular lists spam from bulk providers.
My old weight for this test was 5 or 6 out of 20, and
that's where it will end up again tomorrow.

I'm running MXRATE at zero weight for
testing also. So far today, MXRATE hasn't picked up anything that I'm
not already holding or deleting with the other tests... It hit
on about 2500 messages so far, but they all wound up with scores over 25
anyway. (I hold on 10, delete on 20). The ones I really wanted help with -
those that hit only SNIFFER, which I weight at 7 - don't seem to be tripping
MXRATE...

Hmmm, interesting. I've gotten over 3200 hits in 2 1/2
hours with ip4r ***.mxrate.net. I'll test these with a zero score and
WARN to see if there is a difference.

On a subject tag @ 100, hold @ 200, delete @
300 scale.
I was hoping to revisit the weights, when I
noticed there were none.

MXRATE FYI
thanks. That was quick and
simple.
How much weight relative to your hold weight do
people give mxrate.
What configuration do people use. It seems like
there is a lot that can be done with it from the bit I just
read
I just have the following:
MXRATE-BLOCK ip4r
*****.mxrate.net 127.0.0.2
4 0 (***** get this when you

Thank you

Sign up says it free. I bite and got an
email back with what to do. (Sorry, they ask that the address not be
shared.) I assume the rest of the Declude settings don't
change.
Thanks, Scott, for the heads up.

FYI:
It looks like around Janurary 26th the
pub.mxrate.com IP4R DNS services were made private. Since then I've
had no response from the DNS lists.
They have discontinued the public service
and made a private service available.
