Hi there,

I'm running a 3.3-R system and I would like to know how I can enable the
MAPS system.

On the MAPS DUL page it says I should use:

FEATURE(rbl,`rbl.maps.vix.com',` Mail from $&{client_addr} rejected; see
http://mail-abuse.org/cgi-bin/lookup?$&{client_addr}')
FEATURE(rbl,`dul.maps.vix.com',` Mail from dial-up rejected; see
http://mail-abuse.org/dul/enduser.htm')

in my sendmail.cf file.

So I have 3 questions.

1.  How do I use the mrbl.p3 patch?
2.  Adding the above 2 lines into my sendmail.cf causes sendmail to generate
errors.
3.  Are there other methods to prevent spam?

 I have restricted some domains/hosts in my host.allow file for sendmail. I
imagin that if I use this MAPS system I shouldn't need to use that anymore.

Thanks,
- Will

Here is the output of the error message I mentioned.
