I believe the routing test looks for emails hopping back and forth across
major regions. So, if the email was sent from the U.S. to China and then
back to the U.S., it should trigger. But, if a multinational company has I/T
resources (or registered IP addresses) south or north of the border, or if
Anybody have any idea why the ROUTING test is not adding to my weight.
Here is another sample of where the ROUTING test should have added to the
score
X-Country-Chain: UNITED STATES-EL SALVADOR-CANADA-destination
X-Spam-Tests-Failed: UCEPROTECT-LEVEL2-, NOABUSE, NOPOSTMASTER,
FILTER-COUNTRY [6]
If we look at the definition of the ROUTING Test.
This test will analyze the route that an E-mail takes, and look for highly
inefficient routing that is very common in spam. For example, an E-mail
might get caught if it is sent from a dialup in the U.S. to another account
in the U.S., but is
Hi,
I think that counting countries is not necessarily helpful - specially if
you think of other continents. In Europe, many AOL IP blocks are registered
to the U.K. Knowing that an email went through two or three countries before
reaching you does not really imply anything, specially for
Yup I tend to agree. Although just a quick comment. We have currently
decided against domain keys as it is CPU intensive and we do not believe it
adds that much value. Besides, SM supports domain keys. Sniffer API is on
the development schedule right now. OCR is CPU intensive. Our main focus

I do not think it would add much value For example I have a Russian

One thign you need to check is do you have a DNSOVERRIDE set in your
declude.cfg file?
Declude by default (as long as there is no DNSOVERRIDE) will use the IP
of the DNS server in Imail Admin interface.
Hi Darrell -
I do not have a DNSOVERRIDE in my declude.cfg file. I did change the DNS in
the IMail Admin panel (under SMTP) to reflect my two new local DNS servers.
Again, this will change as soon as I move my mail server to its new home.
So at that point, I will need to make DNS changes again.
Is there any documentation for DNSOVERRIDE? It doesn't seem to be
mentioned on the Declude web site. The only reference I could find to it
is http://www.mail-archive.com/declude.junkmail@declude.com/msg24658.html

DNSSOVERIDE was only really applicable to Declude version 2.0

Also, we suggest that you use the following DNS server with Declude
208.67.220.220. This is an OpenDNS server and it is extremely reliable.
Sorry to be meddlesome, but recommending that a single, remote,
uncontrolled DNS server always be used for Declude's RBL lookups
kinda flies in
Sandy, we suggest that you use the one that we recommend because 95% of issues
with declude are related to in-house DNS servers not working to do recursive
lookups correctly causing problems for our customers. I'm sure Todd has the
skills to support his own DNS server as well, but that has
I would have to agree with sandy. I use Open DNS at home as an extra step to
keep my kids off of unwanted web site, I also use other measures. Two week
ago we had no DNS services for an hour from OpenDNS. This would definitely
cause issues with a mail server. I would place a CACHIND DNS software
Kevin, in our experience, the two OpenDNS servers (208.67.220.220 and
208.67.222.222) that we suggest be used with Declude, work wonderfully and the
uptime is excellent. Like i said earlier, we here in support see a lot of

Uptime should be 100% on DNS servers. It's 2008! This should not even
be a consideration. No matter how
