  • 1.  Brightmail 8 - Where to Enter RBL's

    Posted Oct 06, 2009 09:25 AM
    Im assuming under Reputation, Third Party Bad Senders, but want to verify.
    Is that the correct place to enter an RBL such as xbl.spamhaus.org?
    Thanks!

    Hi,

    That's correct. The following document covers that:
    service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-gate.nsf/docid/2009061818324554
    I'd suggest you only add a list if really necessary and after checking it would not generate "double" queries (as the product already includes a very good reputation system)

    Regards,

    Federico

    Would definitely echo Federico's suggestion here to let the product run for a while and do what it does before you try to use any third party RBL's.  I would expect you'll find that third party RBL's aren't going to add much value.

    And turn on Connection Classification as well.
