[spamdyke-users] RBLs

One of the RBLs I'm using is bl.mailspike.net. Today they started listing an IP which 100 other blacklists don't have listed. Then it delisted it, then it put it back, then delisted it again - all over the course of a couple of hours. Now blacklisted again. What other free, RBL services are

Re: [spamdyke-users] RBLs

Honestly, the RBL that seems to do the most good these days for me is the Barracuda Central list (b.barracudacentral.org). I also use Spamhaus, Spamcop and Spam Eating Monkey, but together those three don't catch even a tenth of what Barracuda catches. -- Sam Clippinger On Mar 6, 2014, at

Re: [spamdyke-users] RBLs

I tend to agree, however, it does depend on the ordering. I found that there are a lot of duplications on the list so the first one tends to get the most hits. My list consists of b.barracudacentral.org zen.spamhause.org I've tried others, but the others I've added only add a very small add

No, it's publicly available. Just add "dns-blacklist-entry=b.barracudacentral.org" to your spamdyke config file. -- Sam Clippinger On Mar 7, 2014, at 3:23 PM, BC wrote: > > Do I need to sign up to use b.barracudacentral.org? I've been looking around > their website... > > On 3/7/2014 2

Re: [spamdyke-users] RBLs

Okay, thanks. It told me to register, which I did... then it disappeared into a black hole (probably preparing to spam me into the next century :). The "about" info said if you don't register the IPs from which you'll be making inqueries, they might add that IP to the blacklist. Gulp. I'

Okay, it all worked. Interesting that nowhere did they tell me to use the URL you listed below, butin 15 minutes I'll try it. Sounds like you andGary recommend putting it as the first RBL in the spamdyke.conf file, right? On 3/7/2014 2:32 PM, Sam Clippinger wrote: No, it's publicly availa

Re: [spamdyke-users] RBLs

Almost all of my uncaught spam comes from two domains: colocrossing.com hostnoc.net The latter usually has the ip address in the rdns so you can trap it that way, but I just block them entirely. With these two out of the way, and barracudacentral and zen.spamhaus, my users see almost no spam.

Funny, based on my own empirical evidence, Barracuda Central's DNSBL yields the best results. As with anything on the Internet, be skeptical and collect your own data. Доверяй, но проверяй (doveryai, no proveryai). *** 9373 92.80% DENIED_RBL_MATCH --- Breakdown --- 6956 8

Again, as I said: this is from my own personal experience, but after having started using since 2 Dec 2013, it's consistently been giving good results, and I have yet to encounter a single false positive. I'm not saying anyone else should use the DNSBL, but I will say that anyone who blindly liste

Re: [spamdyke-users] RBLs

I tend to agree. The lists I've chosen have been the result of many years of tuning. Actually shlink.org wasn't even in my radar and isn't on many of the multi-rbl test sites so I need to test it. I'd be curious to hear about Sam's blacklist setup. Gary On 03/09/2014 09:24 AM, Dossy Shiobara
