SURBL / URIBL not triggered in SA

[Philip Hachey]

Attached is the debug from a message containing the URL that should be
blocked.  Please note that the line "debug: URIDNSBL: domains to query:"
contains no domains so it's as though the plugin's parsing isn't working.
I realize that this is a SpamAssassin problem, not MailScanner, but
perhaps someone here has run into this before and has a solution?



Thank you.

Have you tried debugging it by going straight to the SA command line
interface and see if that gets it?

First, give sa's lint a whirl and see if there are any complaints (it
should run quiet with no output)
         spamassassin --lint

Grab SA's test message, or any other message with complete headers, and
edit it to have the URL in it, and run it through spamassassin's test
mode:

         spamassassin -t <test_message.txt

If that doesn't match, you can try it with debugging enabled:

         spamassassin -tD <test_message.txt

Which will generate  a LOT of debug output that may tell you why surbl
isn't being used. (could be a DNS test failure, or something else..)
