Re: Unsubscribe "noisy" subscriber - Was: FW: ****SPAM(7.2)**** rule didn't fire

2005-03-20 Thread List Mail User
I talked to Dave Hill's brother on Friday (he is the "listed"
"zone contact" for dailyhills.com in 'whois'.  He is Dennis Hills, he promised
to speak to his brother that day, so the problem will hopefully have finally
ended.  Obviously Dave Hills is an enthusiast - he even has a page on his
web site which show SA stats for his site, but also obviously, he doesn't
keep up with his email (in defence, his web page notes that he moved about
five weeks ago).

Let's all hope the bounces have ended.

2005-03-20 Thread Brian Ipsen
 Hi,

 Could someone please remove the subscriber, which constantly sends messages

The subscriber seesm to be [EMAIL PROTECTED] - I've contacted the person
before, because I'm tired of seeing these rejected mails from his system
being posted back to the list, but aparently the problem hasn't been
solved...

Regards,

/Brian

Loren,

While true for vdrugz.net-munged, gh6.net-munged does not always
use a www. prefix.  Also, now gh6.net-munged is caught by the SBL, 4 SURBLs,
and completewhois (if you use it).  I get 14.6 points for just the bare
domain name.  vdrugz.net-munged is caught by the SBL and 4 SURBLs and gives
me 12.5 points.  So by now any rule is redundant (though it might have helped
yesterday or a few days ago).

Hi!
gh6.net-munged, don't the SURBLs have this one yet?  Another from
the taiwanmedialtd.com-munged group (two new domains a day - time for
Spamhaus to take notice; Also they seem to hace given up on the Turkish
address as on last week).

gh6 .net is listed in about every SURBL list. If you have other new ones 
to report please use the submission form or check on the SURBL checker:

Thanks,
Raymond.

Good, bad, or indifferent the rule may be this is probably the reason
it did not fire at all. Restart spamd after changing rules.

service spamassassin restart

That works for Mandrake, RedHat, and I believe for SUSE. Debian is
a little different I suspect.

Well, yes, good idea. But.
As you're already aware, I'm (somehow) not able to do that. Different
thread...

Besides, it's actually only a coincidental detail as to which rule didn't
fire. Thgis happened to be a rule for a URL.  The basic question is "I have a
rule; it didn't fire. I'm confused." :(

(nevertheless I am indebted to  Matt Kettler - I had missed the existence of
uri rules).

N.

I don't use spamd, but if memory serves, you'll need to at least HUP 
spamd to re-read the config file... a restart of spamd would guarantee 
it.  check the man pages for specifics.

Oh that would be truly disgustable.   You say "In many setups". What's the
best way to ensure that I am _not_ ne of those setups?

Thanks.  Performance improvement hints are always appreciated.

Well, I don't really care, actually, for this pattern. There's probably a /
in front (specifically http://) and a / or a space or whoknowswhat after.
But few things that aren't URLs have this look about them and I figure the
www. and the .net are sufficient to ensure it's actually a URL and not the
middle of something else.

Your point is well taken for "dictionary word" patterns of course.

try a uri rule instead of a body rule.

Don't make a rule, use SURBLs.  This one is listed five times
over:

  gh6.net on lists [sc][ws][ob][ab][jp], See: http://www.surbl.org/lists.html

How are you running SA?  Did you restart spamd?  In many setups SA is
persistant, and needs to be explicitly reloaded in some way or other to
reload the modified rules.

Did you run spamassassin --lint from the console on your rules to make sure
that you don't have an error somewhere?  An earlier error can cause the rest
of the file to be ignored.

It would be better to use "(?:" rather than just "(".  Without the ?: the
parends form a capturing group, which is very slow.  With the (?: the group
is just a grouping indicator, which is fast.

Also, it wouldn't hurt to make sure that there aren't more letters before
the www or after the net, to make sure that you are seeing what you really
think you are seeing.  In sum:
