What is WPBL?
WPBL (Weighted Private Blocklist) is a private blocklist that uses weighted scoring across multiple data sources. It's used by some mail systems as part of their spam scoring rather than binary blocking.
Impact Level: Low. Limited deployment but occasionally appears in blocklist monitoring results.
Zone: db.wpbl.info
Key characteristics:
- Weighted scoring rather than binary listing
- Aggregates data from multiple sources
- Designed to reduce false positives through weighting
Delisting: WPBL uses automatic expiration based on behavior improvement. Check their website for current status.
WPBL doesn't just say guilty or innocent - it calculates a probability, letting mail systems decide their own threshold for action.
