Tomorrow's sa-update will include disabling of the DNSWL rules. If you
wish to locally enable them with the same scores which had previously been
default, use this:
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_NONE -0.0001
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW -0.7
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED -2.3
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_HI -5
It was disabled because it is returning a value triggering RCVD_IN_DNSWL_HI
for all queries from DNS servers deemed abusive, causing false negatives in
SpamAssassin. It was the only network test, enabled in SpamAssassin
by default, intentionally returning known incorrect values under any
circumstances.
well, same thing hapened with some blacklists in the past, which
resulted to high number of FP's.
While FNs mean (much/all) mail not to be detected, FP's are uch worse.
I wonder why SA disables DNWSL rules, with this logic blacklists, not
whitelists, should be disabled...
