OFF-TOPIC ANNOUNCE: KAM Ruleset Turning PCCC Wild RBL Back On

Mar 21, 2023, 9:27 AM

Post #1 of 4 (149 views)

Hello All,

I am pleased to announce that users of the KAM ruleset will once again
have the free use of the PCCC Wild RBL.

The RBL was previously removed from use due to its popularity.

Thanks go to Linode.com for donating the servers and as always thanks to
PCCC for the datafeed.

The KAM Ruleset will be celebrating the start of it's 20th year of
publishing free rules and threat data in May 2023. If you are a
commercial user, please consider a donation or long-term sponsorship:
https://mcgrail.com/template/donate <https://mcgrail.com/template/donate>

More Info:

Regards,
KAM

you know the rules to post commericial postings to public free maillists
?, rspamd did this abuse aswell, now thay have only non free irc
support, and telegram

more talk about linode ? :)

mx ~ # dig -4 +short rs.dns-oarc.net txt
rst.x487.rs.dns-oarc.net.
rst.x461.x487.rs.dns-oarc.net.
rst.x466.x461.x487.rs.dns-oarc.net.
"172.104.150.56 DNS reply size limit is at least 487"
"172.104.150.56 sent EDNS buffer size 512"

great for dns

i have a ticket to this problem at linode, there answer is try add new
ips to your linode vps, you can be lucky a new one works :/

spamassassin, its very low at moment

What rules exactly are you referring to? Please cite them precisely, in
grammatically decipherable English. Note that if the 'rules' being cited
are not on an ASF site, they do not apply here.

The McGrail Foundation is not a commercial entity. That's why that page
talks of donating rather than purchasing, and why it refers to a US tax
code section. Noting the enhancement of a widely-used free service for
SA users provided by a non-profit charitable foundation with in-kind
support from a commercial entity (Linode, A.K.A. Amazon) is not a
commercial posting.

If you want kolektiva.social, it is over there...

With all respects,
i agree with Bill... but suppose just Bill is wrong... Kam rules are free and show really huge quality, what is wrong about gently ask for cooperation if used in a commercial way?
