Bug#849083: ITP: libmail-rbl-perl -- Perform queries to blacklists
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Scott Kitterman <scott@kitterman.com>
* Package name : libmail-rbl-perl
Version : 1.04
Upstream Author : Luis E. Muñoz <luismunoz@cpan.org>
* URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Mail-RBL/
* License : Artistic
Programming Lang: Perl
Description : Perl extension to access RBL-style host verification services
Mail::RBL eases the task of checking if a given host is in the list. The
methods available are described below:
.
- new(suffix, resolver): Creates a list handle
- check($host): either a hostname or an IP address
- check_rhsbl($host): queries RHSBLs instead of IP-based lists, useful for
using lists such as some of http://www.rfc-ignorant.org/
This is intended to be maintained in the Debian Perl Group.
Although not recently updated, it seems to do what it needs to do. This is
required as a dependency for mt-policyd, which I'm also working on getting
into Debian (See #783067 for information on that).
