DSBL has shut down, and you should remove the query from your list. It won't help with the phishing, but it'll free up some network resources. Info: http://dsbl.org/node/3

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that. I'm only using zen.spamhaus now, which
is a shame.

why? that's what I use (I only use other DNSBLs in some cases).

I had to remove barracuda because I've received already 3
complaints about false-positives, thats a real shame, because it was
blocking about 3x as much as zen was.


can you share these FPs? if you can't post them to a public list but can post them to me, I am interested.

I've got clamav pulling signatures updated once a day from sanesecurity
(phishing, spam, junk, rogue), SecuriteInfo (honeynet, vx,
securesiteinfo) and Malware Black List, MSRBL (images, spam).
Odd, ClamAV + SaneSecurty does a really good job here at blocking phish before they even get to SpamAssassin. We call clamd through MIMEDefang, then call SpamAssassin (also through MimeDefang) if a message passes.

Have you verified that Clam is using the SaneSecurity signatures? How are you calling ClamAV?

Oh I'm certainly blocking phishing attempts via the SaneSecurity
signatures, probably 200+ in the last hour alone. However, the phishing
emails that are getting through are not known to their signature
database, and in some case have been directly targetted at the domain I
am managing. Thats why I am interested in rules that look for typical
phishing emails. These emails are usually quite similar in their
construction, so it seems like a good case for rules.


It's hard to block all phishes, since new forms appear every now and then.
