------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-03-28 16:09 ------- > I don't really see how a DNSWL is much different from a DNSBL which we > currently implement via a plugin (URIDNSBL). The URIDNSBL plugin contains its own logic for scanning the body and a dispatcher for multiple concurrent DNS requests. It's quite a different animal from a wrapper that examines two header fields and then calls check_rbl_backend(). For that matter, is it even possible for a plugin to call check_rbl_backend()? > A Habeas, or Accreditor, plugin would still be included, and enabled, > with the distribution just like URIDNSBL, SPF, SpamCop, etc. SPF is a plugin because it includes a heavy library and needs to issue its own (possibly unbounded) set of resolver requests. The SpamCop plugin is for *sending* complaint mail; checking the SpamCop DNSBL is a simple rule that invokes check_rbl() in EvalTests.pm. I think the Habeas Accreditor code is more comparable to checking Sender Base, which is in Dns.pm. There's another issue, which I should have pointed out in my first reply: In the presence of an accreditor, I need to disable the old Habeas "haiku" code. If I didn't, senders who are in transition between the "haiku" and the Accreditor style would get a -16 bonus. I don't think that's possible from a plugin. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
