I am running SpamAssassin with MimeDefang and SendmailSwitch. I use an access database in SendmailSwitch to blacklist spammers before they get to SpamAssassin. I am currently blocking about 2 million messages per week and get about 3000 complaints per week. To attack the spam which still sneaks through, I have just added a uri rule with a list of URLs harvested from complaints. I started with 11 urls in the rule.
uri MY_BLACKLIST_URI (18n-ready.com|123clk.com|beowolfhost.com|bestdealss.net|domainfactory.com|dv6.net|jackpotcity.com|largerlover.com|lovingtouches.org|mail-lists.net|yoursavingsweb.com)/i describe MY_BLACKLIST_URI Blacklisted URLs score MY_BLACKLIST_URI 10 The question is -- how long can this rule get before I need to start a new rule? Is there a limit to the length of the statement or a performance penalty for number of checks? Is there a way to improve this or make it more efficient? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
