So, last week I wrote a column about SURBL. This week’s column, which went out today, is about the regexfilter, a free filter that– among its many other tricks– happens to support SURBL. No sooner did it go out than I got two press releases from Jeff Chan of SURBL.org.
First, STAT Communications has added SURBL support to their spam filter set for Mercury/32. Second, Red Earth Software added SURBL support to version 3.5 of Policy Patrol. This will hopefully be the start of a welcome trend, since it’s much easier to stem spam given the “fan-out” nature of blocking spammers’ target URLs.
