Thanks for the heads up. I checked yesterday's log, and every single
message flagged by OSSOFT was clearly spam. So far, none of my customers
have complained about me BOUNCING it.
Before we had the BOUNCE and ALERT features, I was very conservative and
found RBL and DUL to be suitable for HOLD. Now, that declude sends a
notification to the occasional (if every) legitimate sender, I have been
rather aggressive - without a single user complaint so far:
RBL BOUNCE
DUL BOUNCE
RSS BOUNCE
ORDBBOUNCE
OSDUL BOUNCE
OSSOFT BOUNCE
BADHEADERS BOUNCE
REVDNS ALERT
I use the following bounce template:

Subject: SPAM: [Invalid Sender] [Declude.JunkMail] OSSOFT
Importance: Low
I highly advise everyone not to use OSSOFT for the holding or deleting of
messages. For one, they use several databases that aren't managed very
well. One example is this one:
xbl.selwerd.cx
They have the entire UU.NET network in their black list. That is almost as
bad as black listing AOL.com or yahoo.com.
With this said, does anyone know of any other tests that should not be ran?
