Yes. It's effectively not much different from a DNSBL check, so all the usual MIMEDefang caveats for enabling those apply. So far it's been extremely effective, triggering on ~60% of caught spam with zero false positives. My understanding is that the SURBL list utilizes data from SpamCop reports, with some checks in place to prevent common false positives. It remains to be seen whether it will remain as effective once the spammers decide to try poisoning the SpamCop system with false reports. ---- Nels Lindquist <*> Information Systems Manager Morningstar Air Express Inc. _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
