I actually have it -- the firewall runs BIND9 and the mail box is tunned to use it. On Tuesday 14 December 2004 00:14, Wolfgang Hamann wrote: > does it work within 15 seconds ? If you mean the delay of the DNS response of a name query, it works immediately. At leats SOME of the rbls should have been reached. Prior to handing the mail over amavisd, postfix checks with two rbl list that are considered moderate: relays.ordb.org and sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org and these checks work fine. I googled about it and found a post with the same problem, but with no solution: http://www.mail-archive.com/spamassassin-talk@lists.sourceforge.net/msg25829.html I am really helpless in dealing with this. And I think that we need rbl tests to improve spam recognition success as still some spam gets through. If anyone gets an idea what might make the SA rbl tests fail -- plese post it back here -- thanks!
