Hi all,
we are aiming to provide free usage of our DNSBL to the general anti spam
community as soon as possible.
However, in order to do this we would need to deploy more DNS mirrors or we
risk providing a poor service due to the amount of DNS traffic we expect to
receive.
If you think you are up to this (or you know someone that would be) and you
have the necessary infrastructure and bandwidth to support a rbldnsd mirror,
please contact me off list so we can discuss details.
This DNSBL has been running for a while now, incorporated in the SpamAssassin weekly mass
checks and isn't exactly new (we've been operating since Feb 2008). What's new is the
"free" part of it.
You can check the current results here (last two weeks):

http://ruleqa.spamassassin.org/20100227-r916929-n/%2FRCVD
The relevant rule name is "T_RCVD_IN_ANBREP_BL" (aggregation of all bad
reputation IP addresses). Note that both the rule name and the DNS zone in use will
change to a dedicated zone (which is already up and running). If you want to test it out
use this one instead: http://mailspike.org/anubis/implementation_sa.html .
At the moment our goal is to get enough mirrors to provide a free sustained
service and an overall good experience to SpamAssassin users, so that in the
future this can be included in the SpamAssassin base rules (assuming of course
SA folks would see value in it).
I don't see where you have defined any of these entries that you're
using in your meta rules:
RCVD_IN_ANBREP_L5
RCVD_IN_ANBREP_L4
RCVD_IN_ANBREP_L3
RCVD_IN_ANBREP_Z
Did you intend for these to be MSPIKE rather than ANBREP?
