The SBL-XBL is a spamhaus product that incorporates the SBL, CBL and BlitzedAll tests. This would result in 1 less DNS lookups per hop. You shouldn't use XBL or SBL-XBL and the above tests separately as you would be double-weighting the tests. Tests with DYNA in the name will now be skipped after first hop. So with DYNA you will only check the first hop, not the previous hops. My own personal opinion on SBL-XBL is that I have a reatively low volume mail server and I use a weighting system. So I can afford the extra DNS lookups. Since I use a weighting system, something that would fail SBL and CBL, I would prefer to weight with the sum of the two weights, rather than one weight.

First I started to download the global.cfg and the $default$.junkmail file. I then had a look at those files and found there was no reference to the XBL-DYNA test which scores big on the http://www2.spamchk.com/public.html site. Not was there any info on the spam-dabase page on the Declude site. 1) How come 2) Where can I find info about how to set it up? 3) Are the files on the Declude junkmail manual page up-2-date or should I just continue with my old files, which are based on the early 2003 files.
