I had forgotten about that. Thank you, Benny. Using pyzor_perl=1 and pyzor_server_file is absolutely the best option, assuming that it works. > ifplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Pyzor > > use_pyzor 1 > pyzor_count_min 1 > pyzor_welcomelist_min 1 > pyzor_welcomelist_factor 0.2 > pyzor_fork 0 > pyzor_perl 1 > pyzor_timeout 120 > > # pyzor_options options > # pyzor_path STRING > > # pyzor_server_file FILE > pyzor_server_file /etc/mail/spamassassin/pyzor_server_file.conf > > # Pyzor servers configuration file path, used by Pyzor Perl > implementation. > # By default Pyzor will connect to public.pyzor.org on port 24441. > > endif # Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Pyzor > > i juat got no hits yet -- Bill Cole

Warning: Your Pyzor may be broken.
I was working on a mail system today and inadvertently noticed that its Pyzor was broken. When I tried to reinstall Pyzor according to the web documentation with "pip3 install pyzor" I got what claimed to be v1.0.0 and no complaints from the installer but when running the pyzor client tool, it kicked out errors indicating to me that the program had not been even trivially updated to work with Python 3. I did the absolute hackiest thing I could to make it work (blanket s/iteritems/items/ and s/xrange/range/ to address specific error messages) and it did so, but that's not acceptable. Neither is reinstalling a Python2 world. I went looking for a better fix and found a reported issue at https://github.com/SpamExperts/pyzor/issues/155 matching my original symptoms in which a workaround was provided: install directly from the GitHub project's master.zip link, i.e. a snapshot assembled from the current state of the repo, which claims to be v1.1.1. I do not like that solution at all, and added a comment to that issue suggesting that they fix the problem by cutting a release for PyPI. No response yet, but it has only been a matter of minutes. FOR NOW: If you are running a system where Python 2.x no longer exists (that should be everywhere...) and you've never confirmed that Pyzor is working for you, do so now. If you pipe a message to 'pyzor check' and it gives you a response like this you're fine: public.pyzor.org:24441 (200, 'OK') 0 0 If instead you get a Python stack trace, obviously it's broken. I don't feel great recommending any of the obvious mitigations. They are: 1. Install Python 2.7 and pyzor 1.0.0 from PyPI. 2. Hand-patch pyzor 1.0.0 minimally to get it to work with Python 3. 3. Install the head of the development tree from GitHub, whatever that happens to be at the moment. I've chosen #3 for myself, but it's not great. -- Bill Cole b...@scconsult.com or billc...@apache.org (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Not Currently Available For Hire

Scanning the latest deployed (by sa-update) version r1918114 I see no surviving references to SORBS. since yesterday I do see no queries to dnsbl.sorbs.net. in my network anymore. So: thanks for the (spamassassin)-update :-) Andreas
