False positive on SpamHaus

[timconsidine]

Grrrr, I got the same issue now - Cloudron says in blacklist, Spamhaus says not.
Trying to get my head around this long thread.

EDIT : errr, so TL;DR is nothing we can do and Cloudron will fix it “sometime” ?
Maybe I read too fast, but that’s my takeaway at the moment ...

@timconsidine That's about right, yes.

Hello, I seem to have the same issue. My email contacts are getting error message from their mailservers, because their messages to me are getting rejected, falsely marked as positives.

That sounds like a completely different issue to me.

Me too I'm having false positive on SpamHaus, and a lot of spam in inbox...

@p44 people here did have great reviews for @d19dotca custom SpamAssasin rules https://forum.cloudron.io/post/105256
That might reduce your spam in the inbox

@james great, I will try. Thanks a lot

SpamHaus connections from Cloudron are not at all reliable at the moment. As @girish wrote, something seems to have changed recently at SpamHaus.

There are two issues that would appear to both be caused by the same problem (refused connections to the SpamHaus servers): the false positive reports that the IP is on the blocklist and the lack of blocklist checking of incoming mails resulting in mails from IPs that are on the blocklist not being identified as such. That could explain an increase in the amount spam getting through, though SpamAssassin rules should still filter a lot of these. SpamAssassin cannot delete incoming mails but can at least make sure they go straight to the Spam folder.

There are other blocklists for incoming mail. I have had good results with Abusix, for example. It is not possible to set a different blocklist in the mail configuration checks though.

@ccfu I exactly followed your advice: removed SpamHaus and added SpamAssassin rules https://forum.cloudron.io/post/105256 by @d19dotca
