Do you have the perl module Net::DNS installed? Run this: spamassassin -tD Does it say that DNS is available in the debug output? if not, it won't try any RBLs. At 10:57 AM 12/5/2002 -0500, Mike McCandless wrote: I have the following in my .spamassassin/user_prefs file, in anticipation that l

Ok, there's not a lot of detail about your problem, but here's some general things I'd suggest. First, make sure you have Net::DNS installed and your DNS lookup works. Run from the command line: spamassassin -tD Look at the output to see if it even thinks it is trying or if it thinks DNS is u

Yes, each RBL has it's own scores and rules. Setting the score of a given RBL rule disables it, setting it to anything but zero will enable it. Maps, being a subscription service, is disabled per default. Also note that if you're checking a given RBL at the MTA level, checking it again in Spam

Are you having trouble getting any of the DNS blacklists to work, or just the MAPS RBL? You should certainly see a lot of spam matching RCVD_IN_OSIRUSOFT_COM. If you don't do you have the perl Net::DNS installed? I think that's needed to make the DNS blacklists to work, but can't say for sure.
