I have found the setting to enable/disable RBL in proxmox but I was wondering if there is a way to add/modify RBL sites. I currently use 4 sites on a home-grown mail proxy and am blocking ~75% of all inbound e-mail - it's working nicely. Where do I look for the RBL sites or are the sites hard-coded into the configuration?
RBL configuration
- Thread starter mcnetadm
- Start date
The RBL checks are hardcoded in /usr/share/spamassassin/20_dnsbl_tests.cf
There is a way to add additional RBL sites, but not through the web interface.
Anyways, changing this is usually not necessary. For example we filter more than 80% of all inbound mail here (with the proxmox standard configuration).

I took a look at your RBL config and we are using several of the same RBL lists - njabl, spamhaus, and sorbs. Thanks for pointing me in the direction of the config for RBLs.
New Feature Request
It would be very nice to be able to add your own RBLs for the SMTP RBLs (PostFix). I have a list I use for my old PostFix+Amavis system which worked quite well. I would like to see an option in the webadmin of ProxMox to be able to define extra RBLs other than sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org(Should now be using zen.spamhaus.org) and lists.dsbl.org.
Best regards,

hi,
you can add additional rbl very easy on the console, but not on the web interface. we do not plan to do this on the web interface as adding additional RBL is a very serious thing and if you do not know exactly what you are doing please do not - offering this on the web encourage people to play around which is dangerous here.
if you are an expert, just edit the postix accordingly, if you need help here just let me know.
We carefully tested what lists we use at SMTP level. Using zen simply triggers to many false positives. So I do not suggest to change that.
