As I mentioned in a previous email I wanted to setup my own local (as in on the same host as the SMTP daemon) RBL so checks would be real snappy. Unfortunately I find that I cannot use a local RBL with SA because it (rightly for the most part) makes use of the standard resolver logic which (since the server doesn't do it's own DNS normally) ends up sending requests off to a DNS server on the network and completely bypasses the local special purpose DNS daemon. We need another check_rbl_direct() (and correspondingly a supportive do_rbl_lookup) which contacts the $rbl_domain directly. This would allow me to do such things as defining the $rbl_domain as an alias for 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts and keeping the request completely local as needed.
Anyone care to comment on what the chances are of a patch providing this making it into a release? I'm a one man band here and having to repatch my installation each time Duncan releases a new deb would be a real pain in the butt.
