Hello,

It would be interesting to see statistics on the black rules.

It would allow to see those which are useful or not.

Regards.

Hello,

The statistics would be also interesting for the filtering DNSBL.

Regards.

I see nothing about this in the new version. It is not planned?

I think that the statistics for rules and black/white lists in fact don't provide much useful information. Both rules and lists work much faster than DNSBL or URIBL services. So there will be no significant difference if you, for example, turn off some rule with low hit rate. If a rule generates false positives, you can find it out in Filtering log and turn off this rule immediately. If one rule works better and blocks more spam than another (having different conditions), in general case it makes sense to leave both rules, because together they will filter more spam. But this approach doesn't make much sense for DNSBL, because in general case the results with a few good and fast services are better than in case of using many services with worse characteristics.
