While I guess most blacklist operators do aim at a perfect blacklist,
regardless of specific definitions and whether others agree or not...
That's probably one of the worst shift typos in history. ;-)
Other than that, I recently enabled Hostkarma blacklists here, just to
check. FWIW, it's scoring *really* good for me. So good, I seriously
toned it down. I want to evaluate it first. For that, I need something
even close to a considerable, diverse amount of ham.
Black and brown (think of it as gray) is scoring really good, and I've
even seen a white hit already.
Well done, Marc. Let's see again in a week or two. :)
I've also just recently enabled these lists in SA so am still in the
very early stages of testing. I initially did get one FP hit against
the whitelist (spam message sent through an ISP smtp server in the
whitelist) so have minimized the scoring for that. However, the
blacklist has hit a few spam not hit by other blacklists (and I have
quite a few lists enabled - spamhaus, spamcop, barracuda, psbl,
uceprotect).
Black and brown are looking good so far. Of course, used as part of a
scoring system I'm prepared to take the occasional FP :)
FWIW Marc, being top of the hit lists isn't the only thing that makes
your list useful. No one list is ever going to be perfect, so if your
list provides benefits when used in combination with other lists then
I find that equally valuable.
My goal is to be a list in the top class so that like you said, my list
combined with other offers value. Being on top is an artificial goal. :)
