> - DNS lookup: do you refer to feauture 'dnsbl' in sendmail? I alredy use: > FEATURE(`dnsbl')dnl No, I'm referring to the same mechanism, but used by SA and not by MTA. It is better to do DNSBL from SA which only adds score points and if a single DNSBL server misbehaves, it doesn't screw your mail entirely. Using DNSBL directly from mailers used to be a good technique, until it turned out that without careful selection and monitoring of blacklists to trust there is often prohibitive proportion of false positives. I suggest turning off all DNSBL checks from MTA and consulting these from SA. It consumes somewhat more resources, but it is much more reliable. > - check_uridnsbl plugin: what is it?

To see which DNSBL and URIBL rules are pre-defined, see SA rules files 20_dnsbl_tests.cf and 25_uribl.cf. To see which are active (have nonzero score) see 50_scores.cf. You can change scores for individual rules in your local.cf, assigning 0 turns off the rule, assigning nonzero score enables it.
