Hello Guys,
I'm using SA 3.1.0 and i'd like to make some questions about using
RBLs with spamassassin.
SA is configured and running just fine. It's being called from
amavisd. That's not the problem, it's working fine.
My question is related to RBL using. I have disabled the 'local_only'
tests on amavisd.conf and SA is doing RBL lookups. I have configured some
'score RBL_RULE_NAME 0' in my local.cf, which is being used, because i
have several options there and I know they are being called.
Altough I have specified 0 to some RBL rules, i can see using tcpdump
that lookups are being done for the disabled RBLs. Score seems to be
always 0 and rules disabled, because i couldnt find them on my mail logs.
But seems that DNS lookups are still being done, thus creating some
unnecessary network traffic.
Is the correct way to disable a rule setting 0 to its score ??? If
yes, how can I disable RBL rules and make them stop generating network
traffic ?
Are the offending tests combined queries like SBL/XBL, NJABL or the like?
If so, instert a score 0 statement for the unscored parent rule (the one
with a double underscore at the start of it's name in the dnsbl config
file) and it should disable the query.
Disabling the sub rules, that depend on a parent, will merely disable
analysis of the results. The unscored parent still runs and that's what
causes the query.
