Sorry, I should have realized this problem sooner too. Relatively recently, DNSWL started returning values that correspond to the spamassassin rule RCVD_IN_DNSWL_HI for *all* queries, for name servers that have been deemed "abusive". I found out about it 10 days ago. A year ago DNSWL announced it would start requiring payment from people doing more than 100,000 queries per day. This is tied to the determination of "abusiveness". So yes, as Jim Popovitch recommended, you should not have this problem if you run a local DNS server (without using "abusive" servers as forwarders), which I think is probably recommended practice for running spamassassin anyway. -- "every time I race I see god" - tsuwa, #motorcycles, EFNet, 7/19/06 http://www.ChaosReigns.com
