Is the NoBaloney SpamBlocker TechnologyTM effective?
Here are the numbers for one of my servers for the first 30 hours of the new exim logfiles rotated since I installed the latest 3.2.3-RC release candidate:
Here are the numbers for one of my servers for the first 30 hours of the new exim logfiles rotated since I installed the latest 3.2.3-RC release candidate:
Code:
64,919 : Total incoming emails handled
37,980 : Emails blocked because the helo name was not a FQDN
25,359 : Emails blocked by various local and DNS-based blocklists
1,580 : Emails delivered
Think about it: 97.5% of incoming emails were rejected.
60% of incoming emails were rejected for invalid helo name before the blocklists were even checked.
Obviously I won't know about false positives for a week or so; I need to give people time to write us (they get a link to our unblocking page if they're blocked), but there's no reason why the numbers should be any higher than they were in the past; it's always been three or less per week.
So, does NoBaloney SpamBlocker Technology[SIZE="1"]TM[/SIZE] work? I'll leave that for you to decide :D.
