Details

Sets a list of DNS blocklists to use, if $wgEnableDnsBlacklist is set to true. This replaced $wgSorbsUrl .

Changes in 1.19

Array values can either be a string containing the URL of the DNS blocklist, or an array containing the URL of the blocklist and an associated "key" should the blocklist require one.

Example

$wgDnsBlacklistUrls = array(
    'http.dnsbl.sorbs.net.', # String containing URL
    array( 'dnsbl.httpbl.net.', 'mykey' ), # Array with URL and key, for services that require a key
    array( 'dnsbl.tornevall.org.' )  # Array with just URL. While this works, it is recommended that you just use a string as shown above
);

or

$wgDnsBlacklistUrls = array( 'xbl.spamhaus.org.', 'dnsbl.tornevall.org.', 'spam.dnsbl.sorbs.net.', 'rbl.dnsbl.im.', 'noptr.spamrats.com.', 'all.s5h.net.', 'z.mailspike.net.' );

You can find DNSBL-format spam databases on DNSBL.info or other similar websites.

You should end the domain name with a "." to avoid searching your eventual domain search suffixes.
