Barracuda offers a new -- and free -- alternative to Spamhaus
12-17-2008 12:00 PM
For many years Spamhaus has been top dog in the anti-spam world of DNSBL (Domain Name System Block List; also known as Realtime Blackhole Lists or RBLs). But Spamhaus is no longer a 100% free service. Even small nonprofits are now expected to pay at least $250 per year for a subscription to the Spamhaus DNSBL Datafeed Service. Now a new, free alternative to Spamhaus has arrived: the Barracuda Reputation Block List (BRBL), provided by well-known, open source-based Barracuda Networks. And Barracuda CEO Dean Drako says the company has no plans to charge for the service in the future. He says that BRBL (pronounced "barbell") "does cost us a little bit of money to run, but we think that the goodwill, the reputation and the understanding that Barracuda is providing the service will do us well in the long run."

NAME

       Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin - Connect a Mail::Message with Mail::SpamAssassin

INHERITANCE

	Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin
	  is a Mail::SpamAssassin::Message

SYNOPSIS

	# WARNING: requires OLD SpamAssassion 2.x, not the new 3.x
	# See Mail::Box::Search::SpamAssassin for the preferred interface
	# However, it is possible to do:

	my $msg    = ...;   # some Mail::Message object
	my $sa	   = Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin->new($msg);
	my $spam   = Mail::SpamAssassin->new;
	my $status = $spam->check($sa);

	$msg->label(spam => 1) if $status->is_spam;
	$status->rewrite_mail;	# Adds spam lines to header

DESCRIPTION

       WARNING: This module only works with the old version of SpamAssassin: version 2.x.  The newer 3.x releases have changed the way that
       messages are kept. Please contribute improved code.

       The "Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin" class --sorry for the long package name-- is a wrapper around Mail::SpamAssassin::Message, which
       is an interface to the spam checking software of Mail::SpamAssassin.

METHODS

       Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin->new(MESSAGE, OPTIONS)
	   Creates a wrapper around the MESSAGE.  The already present fields from a previous run of Spam::Assassin (or probably fake lines) are
	   removed first.

SEE ALSO

       This module is part of Mail-Box distribution version 2.105, built on May 07, 2012. Website: http://perl.overmeer.net/mailbox/
