  AHBL has discontinued their operations and is deliberetly marking all
  checks as positive:
  
  http://www.ahbl.org/content/last-notice-wildcarding-services-jan-1st
  
  AHBL is enabled by default in SpamAssassin in at least 10.04, 12.04 and
  14.04. This means that every mail gets 2 points on spam score list.
  
  10.04:
