You can configure dnscache to forward queries for zen.spamhaus.org to different upstream servers than the rest of the queries (list IP's, one per line, in root/servers/zen.spamhaus.org - not sure whether you can

Geert,

I've replaced dnscache with dnsmasq because the latter comes with the Slackware distribution, is better documented, and is working. I've also
changed to DNS servers that work with zen.spamhaus.org and I see the
difference in today's mail log report.



If you can't get djbdns to do its own resolution, install bind. setting
up a "caching only" bind is relatively trivial (and many systems come
with a fully working default setup).

Just to clarify for the archives, djbdns (with dnscache) works perfectly well; one should just not add his or her ISP's nameserver(s) to the list of roots. Though it's not the default, a lot of tutorials seem to recommend it.
