Yep. Well, I'd use "ideal" instead of "accurate". But I fear fully comprehending the mind of the re-scorer. > Could you please check if any of those IPs are still listed ? > (especially XBL) > > If they aren't, then it's "reuse" which is causing the issue. If any of the IPs are not still listed, then reuse is doing exactly its job, providing us with the accuracy of the lists at the time email is received. I'm not interested in their accuracy after they've had ample opportunity to correct bad listings, which is not the accuracy anybody actually gets from spamassassin. > reuse RCVD_IN_XBL > reuse RCVD_IN_SBL > > Unless we want to trust stale data, I think this should be removed > for a number of BLs which have short lived listings. I object strongly. Although I still think it would be lovely to reduce the maximum age of emails used in re-scoring to something lower than 6 *years* for ham: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6386 But that would require significantly more masscheck contributors, which would require allowing more masscheck contributors: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6694 (security problem not visible to everybody, possibly invalid, needs input from Warren) -- "Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." - H.
