In the past I've seen the DEBUG logs state an explicit failure to resolve
the DNSBL or RHSBL lookup, but then I've never seen it say "may skip-1" when
it didn't also fail.

What did Declude support say when you ran these logs by them?

Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] IP4r Tests not running


Imail 8.21, Declude 1.82.

MS DNS is running on the same box as Imail.  Imail is set to use
127.0.0.1 for DNS resolution.  Declude is also set to use 127.0.0.1
for DNS resolution - in both the global.cfg and in the Declude.cfg.

MS DNS is setup as a caching server, using forwarders.  The forwarders
are our 4 DNS servers.

Imail is having no problems resolving, using 127.0.0.1.  There is no
problem resolving with NSlookup at the command prompt, either.

Here's the start of a message in the Debug log:
