Was playing with a test box here at home. Installed SpamAssassian from a newely cvsup'd ports tree on a FreeBSD box, and was surprised to see messages getting marked as received in blacklists that no longer exist. Most noteably ORBS. Since this was a fresh Install I hadn't gone through and removed the dead RBL's from 20_head_tests.cf yet. Since dorkslayers doesn't exist. any queries for it are returning that infamous sitefinder address.

I wonder if they've been playing with these wildcards on and off for a few weeks? I have a script that checks for our mail servers in a bunch of popular DNSBLs periodically. On and off over the past few weeks, I started getting notifications from that script that all of our servers were in the various dorkslayers.com DNSBL zones. The dorkslayers.com DNSBLs were all shut down, AFAIK, at least several months ago. I got this notification again last night, and finally commented out the tests for those zones. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis@lewis.org*| I route System Administrator | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
