Why yes..... spammers have no new tricks! Serious decline in new attempts! SURBL catches stuff MUTCH faster then we can right and test rules. (Which is pretty fast.) Believe me I'm really looking forward to something slipping thru my filters, but nothing does! Some of the ninjas have a few more things. We are also working on a few custom evals. One is REALLY cool IMHO, but it has some bugs :) I haven't seen a spam that contained more then one domain in months! (Not counting tracking URIs.) Spammers figure if they are going to get listed in SURBL, better to have only one domain in the spam. We are working on faster SURBL additions. Pre-listings for new domains of known spammers. But rules..... nothing screams out to us. Also one of our main testing ninjas had a major meltdown. Well not him, but his computer. He only had a small meltdown :) Chris Santerre System Admin and SARE/SURBL Ninja http://www.rulesemporium.com http://www.surbl.org 'It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.'
