Here's instructions on how to use it with SpamAssassin and Exim.

I'd like to get some feedback on how well it's working.
This filter blocked my last response to you, as I suspect it will
for this one. As such, I looked at your wiki to determine why I was
listed, but couldn't find a clear reason. The documentation says that
only known spam sources are blocked, but if I had to guess, I'd say
it's because I'm on a dynamic cable IP address (which I didn't see
any text about when I looked on Friday).
Mind you, I've gotten used to the idea that places are going to block
me because I'm on a Cablemodem, so that doesn't really bother me much.
It's just that your documentation didn't mention this as a possible
reason for listing, and gave me no real idea as to why I was listed.
You're relaying though an MSA (fiat.ischool.utexas.edu
[128.83.248.27]) that isn't on a cable connection, though, right?
Blocking because someone uses a cable modem, but isn't delivering
direct-to-MX from that cable connection, is asinine.
I definitely want to figure out what the problem is. Any false positive
isn't acceptable. However that IP isn't blocked. If you can post the
error you got I'd like to see it.
