You have a good handle on things. I run "safe" RBLs in postfix because rejections there are rejected. I run less safe RBLs in spamassassin just to add points. It is a compromise. Now you are going to ask what are the "safe" RBLs? I am not going to step into that one. ;-) Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
