Naturally, this trigger dependancies for a bunch other things (CPAN, MD5, and so on). Eventually, I got everything installed and now it works! debug: using "/usr/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir debug: using "/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir debug: using "/root/.spamassassin" for user state dir debug: using "/root/.spamassassin/user_prefs" for user prefs file debug: is Net::DNS::Resolver unavailable? 0 debug: servers: NS1.LINUXWEBNET.COM NS2.LINUXWEBNET.COM NS3.LINUXWEBNET.COM debug: Looking up MX records for user specified servers: NS1.LINUXWEBNET.COM, NS2.LINUXWEBNET.COM, NS3.LINUXWEBNET.COM debug: trying (3) NS1.LINUXWEBNET.COM... debug: looking up MX for 'NS1.LINUXWEBNET.COM' debug: MX for 'NS1.LINUXWEBNET.COM' exists? 0 debug: trying (2) NS2.LINUXWEBNET.COM... debug: looking up MX for 'NS2.LINUXWEBNET.COM' debug: MX for 'NS2.LINUXWEBNET.COM' exists? 1 debug: MX lookup of NS2.LINUXWEBNET.COM succeeded => Dns available (set dns_available to hardcode) debug: is DNS available? 1 debug: running header regexp tests; score so far=0 debug: running body-text per-line regexp tests; score so far=6.3 debug: check_for_very_long_text: found 2897 bytes debug: check_for_very_long_text: found 2897 bytes debug: Loading languages file... debug: Language possibly: en .. ebug: Ran run_rbl_eval_test rule RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET ======> got hit debug: Ran run_rbl_eval_test rule RCVD_IN_DSBL ======> got hit debug: Ran run_rbl_eval_test rule RCVD_IN_OSIRUSOFT_COM ======> got hit debug: Ran run_rbl_eval_test rule X_OSIRU_DUL ======> got hit debug: Ran run_rbl_eval_test rule X_OSIRU_DUL_FH ======> got hit debug: running meta tests; score so far=23.3 Do the name servers need to have MX records? I was just using the name servers available to this machine. Would it be better just to let SA do its random test? Thanks again. One of the major reasons for installing SA was to get the rbl checks. -- Mike. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
