Several years ago I added a bunch of rules to my local.cf that I picked up from spamtips.org. That was back in the days of Spamassassin 3.3.2, about 2012.
Just curious, six years later, if it's worth keep any of these rules or whether their functionally has been rolled into or supplanted by later releases. These are the rules: ##### Reputation compensations # Definitions header __RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_Z eval:check_rbl_sub('mspike-lastexternal', '^127\.0\.0\.2$') describe __RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_Z Spam wave participant tflags __RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_Z net header RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L5 eval:check_rbl_sub('mspike-lastexternal', '^127\.0\.0\.10$') describe RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L5 Very bad reputation (-5) tflags RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L5 net header RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L4 eval:check_rbl_sub('mspike-lastexternal', '^127\.0\.0\.11$') describe RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L4 Bad reputation (-4) tflags RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L4 net header RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L3 eval:check_rbl_sub('mspike-lastexternal', '^127\.0\.0\.12$') describe RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L3 Low reputation (-3) tflags RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L3 net # *_L and *_Z may overlap each other, so account for that meta __RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_LOW RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L5 || RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L4 || RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L3 meta RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_ZBI __RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_Z && !__RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_LOW # Scores score RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_ZBI 4.1 score RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L5 4.1 score RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L4 3.5 score RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_L3 2.9 # SMF Brackets header SMF_BRACKETS_TO To:raw =~ /<<[^<>]+>>/ describe SMF_BRACKETS_TO Double-brackets around To header address score SMF_BRACKETS_TO 1.5 score URIBL_BLACK 0 score URIBL_RED 0 score URIBL_GREY 0 score URIBL_BLOCKED 0 Thanks for any advice.
