This is probably not of interest  to those who are not in ac.uk


The MAPS-RBL+ list is actually the union of 4 separate lists (RBL, DUL,
RSS and OPS).

For details, see

  One of these - the "dial-up list" is probably our
main reason for SPAM "false positives" at the moment. This is usually
  down to people working from home via an ISP.   Is it possible
to configure MS to use only some of the individual MAPS-RBL+ lists ?

Or should we just give up on these lists and rely on SpamAssassin - all
the "false positives" which I have seen, have negative SA scores so it
is clearly getting these right. Of course, there will be other cases
which the lists get right and SA misses ?

             Thanks ...  Ron
