Ah! excellent, I notice however that only these 4 entries exist in local.cf header SPAMHAUS X-Warning =~/sbl.spamhaus.org/ header JANET X-Warning =~/mail-abuse.ja.net/ header DSBL X-Warning =~/list.dsbl.org/ header DSBL X-Warning =~/relays.ordb.org/

but in the file 20_dnsbl_tests.cf there are others, like
dnsbl.njabl.org. Has anybody written a book on this?

When is sa3 out, will surbl solve all our problems. We have been hanging
back for sa 3 but maybe we should go for the patch with the current
version.

the local.cf are ones that have been added in by local people, hence the JANET reference.

there's lots info about the RBL's in their individual homepages....

the surbl checks URL info *inside* the body of the message, for known spam holding URL's, not the sending ip-address which is what the RBL's do. IE the message body calls out via html to get pictures etc. replaces the bigevil etc SA rules.
