While it's not free for larger volume/commercial use, Spamhaus ZEN
(which includes the SBL, XBL, PBL, and now CSS DNSBLs) has been
invaluable here.
I've always scored on ZEN, but recently I began moving clients to a
newer server where I am enforcing SMTP authentication. As a result,
I am now able to block based on PBL listings.
This alone has blocked about 80% of the spam outright at the SMTP
session level that was previously coming in and then being filtered
by SpamAssassin as well as ClamAV.
Thanks for all the replies.
yes, RBL, I mean DNSBL. Also I heard that configuring DNSBL in sendmail is
better than in spammassassin. because this can release some loads on
spamassassin.
Am I right?
Next, I'm going to upgrade spamassassin to 3.2.5 and try to configure
sendmail to check DNSBL.
I will try bl.spamcop.net first in sendmail. Your inputs are welcome.
I'm looking for some free
DNSBLs. We are non-profit organization and don't have too much email
traffic.
