I guess i spoke to soon.. The "make test" works and it looks like the "make install" works however when i send an email through with "http://test.surbl.org/" in it nothing gets tagged. Is that the correct URL to use to confirm it is working? Any ideas? Paul

[SURBL-Discuss] Fix for the "syntax error at /etc/pamassassin/spamcop_uri.cf" errors
by Daniel Patterson 13 Apr '04

13 Apr '04

Hello all, This is a quick note to those who are getting the following errors under 2.63: Failed to compile URI SpamAssassin tests, skipping: ^I(syntax error at /etc/spamassassin/spamcop_uri.cf, rule SPAMCOP_URI_RBL, line 1, near "eval:" syntax error at /usr/share/spamassassin/20_uri_tests.cf, rule URI_OFFERS, line 175, near "; }" ) The cause of this error is the perl module loader path being set such that your new, shiny SpamCopURI classes are not replacing their original counterparts in the original SA distribution. I'm running Debian, and I noticed, in /usr/bin/spamassassin and /usr/sbin/spamd the following line: use lib '/usr/share/perl5'; The actual content of this line will vary depending on your system, but if you're experiencing the above error, this is the source of your troubles. To fix it, I add the following immedietly after the previous "use lib" line: use lib '/usr/share/perl5'; use lib '/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.3'; This prepends /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.3 to the module search path, which will make the newly installed Spamassassin modules be loaded in preference to those found elsewhere on your system. You could possibly also remove the "use lib" line altogether, but I haven't tried that. daniel

I just ran "make test" for the first time with no errors (ya) so all the error with the 0.099 install have been fixxed. I am going to install it on a "clean" machine just to confirm i have no problems again. Paul

RE: [SURBL-Discuss] multiple domains in spam body
by Scott Truman 13 Apr '04

Good point. There could be a setting for the max number of SURBL callouts. If they did decide to place a large number of 'legit' URLs, they would probably have to hide them using an invisible font, obsufication or some such, so the spamee could only click on the intended URL. However, with many hidden URLs, this would give spam detection engines (SpamAssassin) more spam material to act on, and additional rules could be added to the detection set. Bayesian analysis itself would more than likely pick this up with minimal training.
