Hi,
  SA works fine , for the quiet large setup that we have. ( we get upto
200k mails an hour at peak times ) But I notice it is too network dependent. A little problem with the
network and all hell breaks loose. Mailq shoots up and SA starts timing
out. Probably because I have enabled all kinds of BL tests and uri checks.
But these checks are indispensable without these SA would have no teeth
at all.
So what is the best way to reduce network traffic. We are already
getting the sbl-xbl lists from spamhaus so as to serve those lists
locally , can I get any other lists locally ?  Commercial agreements
also are ok.


We have a similar setup and we don't have any problems. We do run a local DNS cache server on each SA server though (read, not Bind). Are you running a cache server on each SA server ?

We get about 1 million cached request hits an hour and 32K external requests in the same time frame.

Regards,

Rick
