In Mail::SpamSssassin::Conf, there's the option called dns_available. I want to point this to my ISP's DNS server to speed up the RBL checks. However, I'm unclear of the syntax of this option, shown as:
dns_available test: server1.ltd, etc.
Can someone clarify how to set this up?
You don't do it with SA.
if you want to use the above method, your easiest way would be to edit /etc/resolv.conf and add:
nameserver ip-number1-of-isp nameserver ip-number2-of-isp
To the end of it (it should have no other nameservers,; there may be a maximum of 3.)
ip-number* should be the actual IP numbers that your ISP has given you, not names.
Far better would be to learn a DNS utility, such as BIND 9.2.2, and implement your own, caching, nameserver - but that costs much learning, spiritual grit and patience.
Best,
Tony

I love the music of Wagner. The only sound that pleases me more is that of a cat outside my 9th floor window, trying to cling to the glass with its claws.
