--- Comment #10 from Anthony Howe <[email protected]> 2009-01-22 03:39:56 PST --- This ticket is digressing into a mud slinging match. The issue of using public vs. commercial lists is irrelevant here. The issue is how uribl.com current query limit policies (blacklist, drop, always positive, nose pick, etc.) can effect SA users negatively should they ever exceed them. As they stand now, if a host makes excessive queries and uribl.com on some internal no-service list, then all the host queries return "always positive" results that score excessively high against a scale of 5, which in turn can cause mail to be pushed over the threshold that much more easily. SA should consider one or more of the following actions: a) reconsider making URIBL_* rules default on, by making them default off, allowing capable users the choice to use them and their potential future fallout. b) add code to somehow detect the "no-service" situation and subsequently discontinue querying uribl.com c) give a much lower score to URIBL_* rules. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
