SA uses zen by default, although it reports each list that is reported by zen as a separate rule. score RCVD_IN_XBL 15 score RCVD_IN_SBL 15 score RCVD_IN_PBL 15 If you really are unsure, you can look at 20_dnsbl_tests.cf, and there you can see these are implemented with a single score-less hidden rule (__RCVD_IN_ZEN), which does the DNS query, and the other 3 rules match against different IP ranges in the return value. However, all of this is redundant with using it as a spam list in MailScanner. Once you add a DNSBL to the MailScanner spam lists, all mail it matches will be marked as spam, no matter what SpamAssassin does (even if it is whitelisted in SA, the MailScanner spam list takes priority.) Many MailScanner configurations won't even bother calling SpamAssassin when a spam list hits (it will do this unless you have the option set to always include a SpamAssassin report). Generally, I'd suggest one or the other. not both: 1) implement RBLs at the MailScanner level if you trust them absolutely. If listed, spam, no other questions asked. -or- 2) implement RBLs with scores in SpamAssassin if you trust them, but want other scoring factors to weigh in the final decision.
