I use it, with very good results, I've a script which runs once per
hour and downloads the list and converts it to a cdb-file.
exim_wirehub_list.pl:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;
use CDB_File;
use LWP::Simple;
#my $url = "
http://basic.wirehub.nl/spamlist-extended.txt";
my $url = "
http://basic.wirehub.nl/spamlist.txt";
#Wirehub list
my $wirehub = get($url);
die "Can't load spamlist.txt from wirehub" unless $wirehub;
my $cdb = new CDB_File("/etc/exim/spamlist.cdb",
"/tmp/spamlist.tmp".rand(1000000))
|| die "Can't open CDB-file";
foreach my $spammer (split("\n",$wirehub)) {
$spammer =~ s/#.*//;
next unless $spammer;
$spammer =~ /^(.*)[\s\t]+(.*)$/ || next;
$cdb->insert(lc $1,$2);
};
$cdb->finish() || die "Failed to finish cdb-file";
and the following ACL:
deny message = address listed at wirehub spamlist
senders = cdb;/etc/exim/spamlist.cdb :\
*@cdb;/etc/exim/spamlist.cdb
You should place the ACL-entry in your RCPT-acl, after checks for mail to
postmaster, and before any expensive RBL-Lookups or sender/receiver
verifying
