             Bug #: 6752
           Summary: URIBL_BLOCKED rule causes lookup, doesn't just check
                    for previous lookup results
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


The recent addition of URIBL_BLOCKED (which I unfortunately didn't notice)
caused spamassassin to start to query multi.uribl.com even though I had
disabled it via:

score URIBL_BLACK 0
score URIBL_GREY 0
score URIBL_RED 0

I would suggest that the addition of this rule should have had a method to
check and see if its even necessary to see if it was "blocked".

In my case, it caused my servers to start to query that list, thus getting them
blocked.

I could imagine others may have had this problem if they had disabled the URIBL
rules the way I had as well.

My suggestion would be a syntax in the configuration to say disable everything
for  multi.uribl.com, something similar to:

disable_urlbl_source multi.uribl.com

This would ensure that any future rules added for a specific list would not
cause SpamAssassin to start querying a previously disabled list.
