Not always a good plan when you notice that some blacklists *may* not

As Matt put it, a local caching server doing no forwarding is the ideal.
Having no positive hits when using opendns is not the same that having a
time out :-)
Well, the point here is not about DNS server "slowness". I am using that
same server on other machines and have no problems at all :-)
I am receiving a timeout from SA when quering dnsbl servers but I have no
problems when I test them with "host" command... and that is quite strange.
I know there were some bugs filled in SA for similar problems, so I updated
to the latest version available (3.2.5) but after updating, I get the same
results :-(
Try running a msg thru SA in debug mode and see if you're having any DNS
timeouts due to some dead BL or similar.
