Such high static scores don't leave much room for the GA rescoring to
balance the other DNSBL scores. We would have have better
statistics-driven results if we let Mailspike's rules float, do GA
rescoring, manually adjust the results, then compare the before and
after fp-fn ratios to be sure it is sane.
My experience with other RBLs has shown that masscheck is too
conservative with them but I welcome stastistic driven scoring.
However, my scores are based on real-world implementations with those
scores in testing since at least July.
What I don't want, however, is paralysis waiting for other things to
drive the inclusion. 3.4.0 is the time to consider the inclusion of
MAILSPIKE. Refining the scores from there can be done at anytime.
Can you propose changes to the static scoring based on your expertise
now that moves MAILSPIKE to inclusion and then open a new ticket to
refine the scores and scoring system perhaps?
