I just received the dreaded URIBL "You send us to many DNS queries"
notice. This is fine. We have been growing and I am sure our
queries have gone up. But when looking at their data feed service
options the first thing I noticed was that there is no fee structure.
I don't know about you, but that is always a red flag in my world.
Before I even get past the first paragraph it already smells like a
"shakedown".

My real question is how badly is my SA environment going to be
impacted by turning URIBL off? What increase in spam should I
expect?
These stats are for small trap box which only accepts mail from bots and
rejects stuff listed by DNSWL and other public WLs. Since midnight CET-
These are only URI BL tats - so you woun't see other dnsbls like
Spamcop, etc.
Some zones may sound familiar - others are "private".
