Code / Description
RBL based Anti-Spam agent to check all inbound SMTP mails against RBL blacklist databases and
move Spam to the junk forder
With Domino 6 SMTP gateway servers it is possible to block or tag ($DNSBLSite item) potential Spam using Dominos built in RBL features. Unfortunately there is no option to visualize tagged mails in user's inbox nor is there any Notes build-in action tavailable to run against tagged mails.
This agent will take care of already tagged mails as well as it can query RBL lists actively which is useful if the gateway servers do not tag or check mail. Of course this agent might become useful for Notes5 users.
Features of this agent:
• Respect Domino 6 $DNSBLSite item for Spam tagging (can modify code to respect additional/other ways of tagging)
• Actively check incoming SMTP mails against individual RBL lists
• Check all HOPs or last HOP IP only against RBL lists
• Multiple individual RBL lists
• Check against all configured RBL lists or simply exit after first "match"
• Individual whitelist of mail addresses / domains (no IP ranges)
• Prevent OutOfOffice agent to process Spam mails
Available actions on Spam mails:
• Move to 'Spam' folder (R5)
• Move to 'Junk Mail' folder (R6)
• Add '[Spam]' to Subject
• Delete
• Prevent OutOfOffice Agent from replying to Spam
Usage / Example

Posted by Tarcio Souza on 01/14/2005 01:32:06 PMIt's already implemented in R7
In R7 (see Beta 3), users can create a Rule to catch RBL blacklist ($DNSBLSite) or whitelist ($DNSWLSite). Besides, any knowledgeble adminstrator will bust someone's chops for creating an agent, particularly 'when new mail arrive' type agents.
Cheers,

Great idea. I am going to use this to justify using some of the RBL's. Going to R7 is not a feasible solution for me anytime in the near future.
Thanks again.
