How to significantly cut back spam with cPanel 11 RBLs

Along with the many other GUI enhancements that have come with the new version 11 there have been some MAJOR improvements in how spam is handled. While cPanel has always remained an easy to modify system many people do not like to start modifing configuration files. Those people will be happy to learn that now cPanel 11 includes support for RBL support.


To enable it simply login to WHM and click on "Exim Configuration Editor". From here you have your choice of spamhaus and or spamcop, I generally enable both. You can also set lower limits on SpamAssasin in this menu if you would like to be more sensitive. Keep in mind of course as you raise the sensitivity the chances of legit email getting dropped increase.



Overall good job cPanel! This is a feature that has been needed for awhile but is even more important with the recent wave of spam attacks.
