FYI, in the new beta .162 we made major improvements in ensuring the service shuts down properly. It looks much more stable than in the current official retail release.

SpamFilter is designed so that you never have to restart the service to make any changes active. So far you and Matt are the only ones experiencing this problem. I'd definetly call it a bug, and are working with Matt to try to find out what the problem is.

If you would like us to access your server to troubleshoot it, please let us know by emailing support@logsat.com

We're running on a NT Server 4.0 SP6. We were trying the .143 beta version but I have never had trouble with restarting the service even on earlier versions. ]]> Mon, 16 Jun 2003 10:43:00 +0000 https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=936&PID=970&title=black-lists-not-working-right#970 <![CDATA[Black Lists not working right : We started with version v1.1.2.122...]]> https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=936&PID=969&title=black-lists-not-working-right#969 Author: pcmatt

We started with version v1.1.2.122  then upgraded to v1.1.2.124 and are running on W2K Server with SP3 and latest hotfixes.  What version are you running and on what platform?  I can't restart the service.

Thanks, Matt

Thanks. I did'nt actually have to reboot just restarted the service and now the black list seems to be working OK. It was odd some IPs even before the restart would appear correctly but some would not.

Robert, There were no typos in the list, it had to do with restarting the service. Is this a bug or a requirement?]]> Mon, 16 Jun 2003 09:03:00 +0000 https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=936&PID=968&title=black-lists-not-working-right#968 <![CDATA[Black Lists not working right : TK: I&#039;ve had the same problems....]]> https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=936&PID=965&title=black-lists-not-working-right#965 Author: pcmatt

TK:  I've had the same problems.  You probably made a configuration change AFTER the service was started.  We always have to reboot our server and then changes to the configuration work fine.   This appears to hold true for most any configuration change.

Tk,

We tried doing a manual check from SpamFilter's "Check if IP in ORBS", and it correctly reported that it is indeed blacklisted by SpamCop's bl.spamcop.net.

In the list of maps server you pasted there is an extra "e" in the true next to spamcop. Is that a type in the posting or in the SpamFilter's list? If it's like that in SpamFilter it will not work...

Here's the list you pasted:

bl.spamcop.net, true e sbl.spamhaus.org, true relays.osirusoft.com, true spam.dnsrbl.net, true dnsbl.njabl.org, true proxies.relays.monkeys.com, true dnsbl.sorbs.net,true

And here's ours for a comparison:

bl.spamcop.net, true
sbl.spamhaus.org, true
relays.osirusoft.com, true
spam.dnsrbl.net, true
dnsbl.njabl.org, true

Here is another example: 205.235.69.168

Doing a manual (Check if IP in ORBS) returns this IP address as not black listed. Whereas bl.spamcop.net reports:

205.235.69.168 listed in bl.spamcop.net. ( 127.0.0.2 )

Here is a list of my maps servers:

bl.spamcop.net, truesbl.spamhaus.org, truerelays.osirusoft.com, truespam.dnsrbl.net, truednsbl.njabl.org, trueproxies.relays.monkeys.com, truednsbl.sorbs.net,true]]> Fri, 13 Jun 2003 10:57:00 +0000 https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=936&PID=945&title=black-lists-not-working-right#945 <![CDATA[Black Lists not working right : Yes, of course. ]]> https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=936&PID=944&title=black-lists-not-working-right#944 Author: Guests

Are you using the line:
