Server Migration
Just an FYI to anyone trying to access the site and / or receiving a spamtrap feed from us; we're migrating servers to a colo this afternoon, so will be down for a couple of hours as I get things reconfigured. Those using the DNSBLs will be unaffected as they are all hosted offsite. See you on the other side.

All the news the past few days is about the takedown/de-peering of McColo, which according to some reports was hosting the C&Cs (command-and-control hosts) from some of the largest botnets around. In other news, "Pangea" took down a slew of drug peddling spammers. This should probably not distract us from the also recent revelations about just how much money spammers can make on very, very little investment and a paltry response rate. And finally, the stupidity of some people is enough to make you wonder just what they won't believe, no matter the consequences.

Rob McEwen launches new site for invaluement DNSBL
A mix of three different DNSBLs, one a URI blacklist, one a standard "sender IP" blacklist, and another expressed in terms of whole netblocks, Rob's invaluement DNSBL service launched recently. It's a for-pay service, and though I don't subscribe, I know folks who do who report that it is effective at catching stuff other DNSBLs do not.

Davidson proves to be a scumbag to the last
Unable to face his own failure to evade prosecution and sentencing, and unable to bear imprisonment, even of the most country club sort, "spam king" Eddie Davidson walked off from prison and finally shot his wife and two of his children, killing two and leaving two as orphans. As much as he deserved all the punishments that could be devised, and as much as his final actions prove what a sociopath he was, our thoughts are with his remaining family, who did not deserve this at all.
For more details, see this Denver Post article.

DNS Zone Transfers Now Illegal in North Dakota
Apparently, judges in North Dakota are so poorly trained in recognizing the obvious that it is no longer safe to access any public information services hosted in that state, for fear of prosecution. For more on the story, which involves anti-spammer David Ritz, we take you to CircleID: North Dakota Judge Gets it Wrong. Be sure to toss in some cash for David's defense fund, if you haven't already. And if you have already, hey, it's a new year, and stupidity is as plentiful as hydrogen.
Oh, and be sure to read the Findings of Fact; apparently going by the nick "BOFH" is also grounds for a slapdown from the judge. What a pile of steaming nonsense that whole document is.

new pats posted - 20071108 (maintenance pats release)
24058 patterns, 10396 right anchor strings, 32083 test IPs.
Some contribs, more QA.
PLEASE NOTE: the patterns_xwalk file and rightanchors file now contain
a new token, 'mixed' for patterns_xwalk and 'MIXED' for rightanchors,
which will be increasingly used to designate and distinguish between a
"we're not sure what this is but it is generic" class, and a "this is
a naming shared by both known dynamic and known static hosts" class. I
will be going back through the history of the dataset and looking for
those cases where a pattern had a non-generic class that was subsequently
reduced to generic, and changing these to 'mixed'. It's restricted to a
very small number of strings and anchors at present, but expect more.
