I just finished a very quick test of the Botnet tool, and the sheer number of FPs against eBy mail coming from eBay's servers was staggering - literally every single mail from eBay. It also, for my testing, hit on a lot of legitimate ham - mostly with BADDNS. I'll run another test later, but I've got to move on to other things now.


The botnet_pass_domain entry for ebay, in the default Botnet.cf file, didn't exempt ebay messages from the Botnet rules?

(though, personally, I would rather tell people with bad DNS to fix their DNS, or use their ISP's mail server, than exempt them)
