Starting March 1, 2024, Validity will allow up to 10,000 requests to
anonymous users over a 30-day period.
10k requests per 30-day period is about 333 queries/day. Or less than 14
queries per hour.
Not very much at all (and certainly at least order of magnitude less than your
stated traffic).
No amount of local DNS caching is going to fix limits *that low*.
That is remarkably low.
A quick check for me shows just over 10K messages processed by SA. I
didn't However a bunch of them hit shortcircuit rules (e.g. DKIM
welcomelist) and thus I suspect some of those don't query RBLs (but logs
show some do). So perhaps I am just squeaking by. And yes, I am
running my own resolver.
This is a personal server. While I can see that some personal servers
would be under a 10k/30d limit, this is quite different from a 50k or
100k limit and I'd expect many even single-person servers to get
blocked.
Has SA doctrine changed in terms of default ruleset inclusion of RBLs
that block small sites with properly-configured resolvers? I managed
to miss the new feature of detecting blockage and disabling that RBL,
and I can see that with that feature, having default rules that are
blocked for many reasonable personal use systems is less problematic.
So what happens to the limit when you register with them?
