but also show the hostname

SenderBase is used to identify orgs/domains/countries

a hostname is the same like an IP - you may put the host name into white 
or black IP lists
the advantage is - that is the hostname is resolved in to multiple IP's - 
all these IP's will be used in the list

- if a SenderBase query does not return a valid domainname but returns a
valid hostname for an IP - the
  domain part of the hostname is now used as detected domain

Any chance of having the hostname ALSO checked against white and black org
lists?  This way, for records that return a domain name of a major ISP
(which we really can'twhite/black list), but also show the hostname that
we're trying to match against, we can use that.

 Hi all,

 fixed in assp 2.4.4 build 15130:

 - SPF records splitted in to multiple TXT-records caused an exception 
in
 the Mail::SPF module

 - attachments and charactersets were not detected, if the email MIME
 header was malformed
   (no Content-Type or no boundary in the email header, but MIME parts 
were
 defined)

 - outgoing and local bounced mails were not correctly detected and were
 possibly blocked if
   'RelayOnlyLocalSender' and/or 'RelayOnlyLocalDomains' was set

 - the IPinHelo feature caused unexpected hits by accepting different
 separators in the same HELO
   like 1.1-2.2 or ab:cdef-0001::2

 - under certain circumstances it was possible that a low confidence
 detection of the HMM engine was not
   reset, even if the Bayesian engine got a high confidence detection

 changed:

 - if a SenderBase query does not return a valid domainname but returns 
a
 valid hostname for an IP - the
   domain part of the hostname is now used as detected domain

 - for new detected SenderBase records - the hostname is appended

 - if 'BayesAfterHMM' is configured and the HMM check gets a low
 confidence, the Bayesian check
   will run in addition

Is there a practical difference between 0 and 0.001

Yes - from the mathematical point of view a practical 'baysConf' range is 
between 0.01 and 1

I'd think something like 0.1 would be a good starting point

thought ? - calculated ? - this is a very very wild guess - with an ideal

This will be fixed.

Your '0.1' guess was good (for me). While reviewing the code and checking 
the math, because I fiirst assumed your guess was well educated, I found a 
really nice debugging line, which caused assp to skip reading the corpus 
confidence at startup. This caused assp to use a too low corpus confidence 
from the startup to the first rebuildspamdb or the first reported mail.
This will be also fixed.

Re: [Assp-test] fixes in assp 2.4.4 build 15130

2015-05-11 Thread K Post
Thomas,
When you said white and black IP lists, which lists (by name please) are
you talking about?

I see the whitelistedIP list, but I don't want these allowed emails to
contribute to the whitelist or notspam corpus, I just want to give them a
bonus score, like senderbase functionality allows.  I know I can give a
bonus using a bombheaderre, but why not have this also in Senderbase?  It
keeps this kind of thing in one place.  You've already got the new code
looking to the hostname, but, if I understand it correctly, that's only if
the domain isn't returned by senderbase.   What's the downside to just
having an or match here to catch a given value in WhiteSenderBase if it
appears in the neetwork name, domain name, OR the hostname?


Greyhat-
I've been using assp since 0.34, back in the John Hanna days.  I'm not
trying to use senderbase as a single layer.  Quite to the contrary, I use
senderbase, I believe how it is intended, to help insure that a single
layer inaccuracy (say bayesian) will incorrectly block a message.  I like
that the data comes from Cisco's ironport network, vs simply a reverse DNS
to global servers.

I'm suggesting what I perceive as an improvement to ASSP for Thomas'
consideration.

Sometimes its those little things that can make a big difference.  One of
the things I'm battling is an inaccurate corpus.  This isn't ASSP's fault -
it's due to my job responsibility having changed several years back, no one
else paying attention when there was supposed to be someone, using very old
v2 code, and some lousy settings for about 3 years before now.  Now that
I've convinced the powers that be that this has gotten out of hand, we're
back on track and the corpus is improving greatly.

Giving senderbase the ability to look down to the hostname would help me -
if there's another way, I'm all ears.

ASSP appears to be sending
this message that is coming over the wire less than perfect.

This is NOT the case!

Okay fine, no changes, but if it's hitting me, don't you think it's
affecting all Outlook users?  Like I said, it's not critical, or even that
much of an annoyance, I'm just pointing it out - ASSP appears to be 
sending
this message that is coming over the wire less than perfect.

 Betreff:[Assp-test] Annoyance: Toggle view button in block

 (notcritical)



 I use outlook to receive the nightly block report.  In outlook, all 
looks
 normal (though there is no toggle view button visible).

 If I view the message in Internet Explorer by viewing the message in
 Outlook and section actions, view in browser, I see a search looking box
 at
 the top that says oggle.

 Viewing the source in IE, I see:

 input type=uttonquot; name=ogglequot; value=oggle
 view?onclick=how=show=none')?'inline':'none');changeview(show);return
 false;?= title=lick the= button=

 
tosimplifyortoextendtheBlockReportview-requiresjavascripttobeenabledinyourmailclients=

 I posted about this a couple weeks ago, and I know that it's supposed to
 be
 a toggle button.  The problem is that it's not displaying like that
 because
 something is happening causing each html value to have its first letter
 clipped off.
 button-utton, toggle-oggle, etc.

 Any clue as to what could be going on??

Re: [Assp-test] fixes in assp 2.4.4 build 15130

2015-05-11 Thread Thomas Eckardt
SenderBase is build for orgs/domains/countries - that's it. I'll not put 
any host or IP related option in to the SenderBase feature.

OK - I understand, you want to give messages coming from specified host's 
, IP's or IP ranges a positive or negative (let's say) prescore.
If such a feature would be integrated, there are two places, where this 
makes sense. The PenaltyBox - or the IP blocking configuration. I think 
the PenaltyBox would be the right place.

But - and you detected it right - we already have this functionalty in 
'bombHeaderRe'. Hmm- bombHeaderRe will not resolve hostnames to IP's - but 
this is the only (IMHO a minor) disadvantage.
The great advantage of bombHeaderRe is the 'NWLI' function, which offers 
alot of configuration options. 

This feature request is stored - I'll have to think about it some time.

Thomas

Thomas,
When you said white and black IP lists, which lists (by name please) are
you talking about?

I see the whitelistedIP list, but I don't want these allowed emails to
contribute to the whitelist or notspam corpus, I just want to give them a
bonus score, like senderbase functionality allows.  I know I can give a
bonus using a bombheaderre, but why not have this also in Senderbase?  It
keeps this kind of thing in one place.  You've already got the new code
looking to the hostname, but, if I understand it correctly, that's only if
the domain isn't returned by senderbase.   What's the downside to just
having an or match here to catch a given value in WhiteSenderBase if it
appears in the neetwork name, domain name, OR the hostname?


Greyhat-
I've been using assp since 0.34, back in the John Hanna days.  I'm not
trying to use senderbase as a single layer.  Quite to the contrary, I use
senderbase, I believe how it is intended, to help insure that a single
layer inaccuracy (say bayesian) will incorrectly block a message.  I like
that the data comes from Cisco's ironport network, vs simply a reverse DNS
to global servers.

I'm suggesting what I perceive as an improvement to ASSP for Thomas'
consideration.

Sometimes its those little things that can make a big difference.  One of
the things I'm battling is an inaccurate corpus.  This isn't ASSP's fault 
-
it's due to my job responsibility having changed several years back, no 
one
else paying attention when there was supposed to be someone, using very 
old
v2 code, and some lousy settings for about 3 years before now.  Now that
I've convinced the powers that be that this has gotten out of hand, we're
back on track and the corpus is improving greatly.

Giving senderbase the ability to look down to the hostname would help me -
if there's another way, I'm all ears.

2015-05-11 Thread Thomas Eckardt
I believe how it is intended, to help insure that a single
layer inaccuracy (say bayesian) will incorrectly block a message.

IMHO it is a wrong approch of an assp-admin, to try to manage the 
detection behavior of assp using the hundreds available exception lists. 
Exceptions should be set as general as possible - less could be more. It 
is better to spend some more time in corpus maintenance and enduser 
workshops (BlockReporting + reporting spam/ham + personal black/white). 
The self learning algorythm of assp V2 is one of the best. It learns just 
in time within some seconds or minutes, without the need of a complete 
rebuildspamdb. Inceasing the privacy level  (Bayes,HMM, ...) increases the 
detection correctness to an amazing high level.
It is better to let spam through - and give the decision in hand of the 
endusers, than try to manage hand made exceptions for them. As a admin 
prevent massive spam attacks , manage the well known WHITE and the well 
known BLACK - everything inbeween should be managed by the endusers.
If endusers are not willing , include them in allSpamLovers (   ccSpam is 
also a nice feature :):):)) and let them feel what SPAM is.
