I've installed the bayesian spam filter ASSP (http://assp.sourceforge.net/)
It works pretty well but I've got one problem with it: It does not support RBLs the way SIMS does. I'd like to have this support added, but the originator of ASSP does not think it's necessary and refuses to add this support. In most cases, the bayesian filter does cover the spam from blacklisted sites, indeed, but in my special case it does not, and so I need the additional RBL protection. ASSP is written in Perl, which I can read a little, but not write new code in it. The new code that needs to be written is this: A function that takes an ip address (as a string) and then contacts a RBL server and returns a boolean result telling if the addr is blacklisted. Can someone tell me how this would be written in Perl? Testing just one RBL service would be enough, although using a list in the format as used by SIMS would be great (meaning that multiple RBLs can be tested and a matching error text can be returned).
