Spam is on the rise again and once again I have to waste time trying to

delete it, why cannot they?  Because it is my job to make the servers
automagically whisk it all away.

Anyway, to the topic.  I currently only use spamcop for rbl.  I trust
spamcop to not have false positives very often if at all.  Are there any
other good rbl's that are trustworthy in this respect?

My favorite: sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org. I include the following line in my
sendmail mc file:

FEATURE(`dnsbl',`sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org')dnl

I also use greylisting, which blocks about 75% of all incoming mail. (See
FreeBSD ports: /usr/ports/mail/milter-greylist )

I have heard about that one. I think Abigail uses that one also. I think I might try it out.

I seem to remember you talking about the greylist also. Is it high maintenance?

Thanks,
Jonathan
