Probably not, at least not in the next version. spamdyke's DNS system sends its queries simultaneously and accepts the first positive response it receives. The rest are discarded. In order to log them all, spamdyke would have to wait for all responses to come back, which would slow down the

Yes, this is certainly possible. Right now spamdyke identifies the RBL in its message to the remote server but not in the logs. Good idea! What would be a good way to log this information (preferably without breaking existing scripts)? I'm thinking as I type here, but spamdyke already

I like having specific RBLs logged. I just installed spamdyke on a few qmail-toasters yesterday (replacing rblsmtpd), and was going to as about this. Michael beat me to it! ;) If simultaneous queries are being done, can all RBLs that match be logged? Perhaps a comma separated list within

The RHSBL filter checks rDNS names and sender addresses, not recipient addresses. It also produces permanent rejection codes, not temporary ones. If you're seeing the same sender rejected repeatedly, it's because the remote server is sending repeatedly. Also, spamdyke should be disconnecting
