To my knowledge, spamassassin only uses blacklists onThere are a fair few so-called "right hand side" blacklists (taken from the fact that they use the rhs of the email address), but they're focussed on blocking based on what is given in the MAIL FROM line. I'm sure they could extend themselves to work on domains used in URLs in spam though.
headers, i think that it should use it on urls in the body as well.
EVERY piece of spam out there has contact info, or they can't
sell their product, and that contact info is probably one of the hardest things to keep changing. If there were blacklists for email addresses,
web addresses, and phone numbers, spammers would have a
VERY hard time providing a way for their clients to contact them,
and unless their clients can contact them, they can't sell their product. To my knowledge, only IP blacklists exists, but blocking
urls based on those IP blacklists would at least be a start.
