Dave,
It works like two different CONTAINS filters.
It takes the value in the first column, and if the MAILFROM contains
the string, then it checks both columns against the REVDNS entry to see
if either one matches. Since the first column has an @ symbol in it,
that will never match, and the
Matt,
Thanks for the suggestions.
With a maxweight variable it would also make sense to add a body
weight variable (so that this weight easily can be set to a value
other than 0). At present, the processor load shouldn't be any
problem, however, since the number of entries is rather few. This
Delete the nobody alias if it's present. That will let Imail reject
misaddressed messages before it processes them. This is way more
efficient,
and it should cut down on your processor and disk activity quite a lot.
What if nobody is a real address?

Hi Markus:
I'm curious:
All of this 24 messages are NDR's or Notifications send from back
to the recipient.
Why did these NDRs contain a blocked URL? Were they indeed wanted NDRs,
or were they NDRs for Spam that wasn't delivered, which happened to have one
of your users as the faked sender?
As for the maxweight, perhaps someone can do it better, but this works for me:
In the variables ection add:
set V_Maxweight=20
In the code after if not %v_weight%== echo SKIPIFWEIGHT %v_weight%
surbl.filter.tmp
add:
if not %v_maxweight%== echo MAXWEIGHT %v_maxweight% surbl.filter.tmp

I will update the script so that it can handle both maxweight and an

I don't think that a variable for setting the weight of rows/entries
different from the maxweight is necessary, since the purpose is to
stop processing at a match, so the maxweight option would set the

regularly, it writes the last read position to a file and seeks to that

I've been wanting to use WHITELISTFILE for a while now to do per-domain whitelists since we're using per-domain/per-user settings now ( I'm obsessive, what can I say ), and week provided a very obtuse way of allowing me to do so. So, as the instructions say in the manual ( using Declude 1.75 ), I

I just downloaded the script and got it to update. Thank you.
I looked through the messages on the list but I could not find what is
the suggested weight for this test. Any suggestions? I am currently
marking SPAM at 10 and seeing how that goes. I would like to start
deleting at 20 or so.
Not surprising that you missed this one, based on the subject line:

I can see that SURBL has the same efficiency as CBL, DSBL or XBL-DYNA. So

That follows the pattern I often use with whitelisting... It reinforces the
power of tools we have at our disposal and the care with which we need to
use them.
