EDIT 26 December 2006:
SpamBlocker3 is going into Beta Testing today. It optionally includes ClamAV, for those who've wanted Anti-Virus built into DA.
In order to help us support SpamBlocker as we move forward we've created several new sub-forums; be sure to check out the complete list here.
Note that there are both forums and threads on that page, including this thread, which I've moved into the new subforums today.
EDIT 29 Oct 2004:
The second free DA version of SpamBlocker has just been released as Version "RSS-1.2da".
The modifications, (taken from the modifications log) are:
RSS-1.2da 29-Oct-2004
Modified to change use of sbl.spamhaus.org list to use of sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org list.
Modified to add bad_sender_hosts check; see modification instructions.
I highly recommend the update, as it allows you to block by IP# or by hostname in addition to by "From" address.
But it's NOT currently included in DirectAdmin.
Should you decide to use it you MUST make all the modifications you made to the original file, so that anyone who get's a false positive bounce will be able to visit your website to be unblocked.
In addition, you'll also need to add a new file at /etc/virtual/bad_sender_hosts, to be populated by the IP#s and hostnames you want blocked.
End of edits.
I've just released the Free DA version of SpamBlocker.
John and Mark have indicated that they may include it in a future version of DA, and I've given that my blessing.
The advantage of having it included in DA would be that DA would control the contents of the added files.
But you can certainly use it as-is; I do. The file is at:
http://www.nobaloney.net/downloads/spamblocker/DirectAdmin/
and is well documented. Be sure to read the documentation completely before using it to replace /etc/exim.conf on your system, and be sure to keep a copy of your original exim.conf file in the event you'll need to revert.
It does require some well documented file additions to /etc/virtual/ but it should be quite easy to install into your DirectAdmin server.
The license under which exim.conf.spamblocked is released may be found at:
http://www.nobaloney.net/downloads/gnu-gpl-v2.txt
Please post to let me know about your experience with it.
Thanks.
Jeff
