Matt, Is this true even if you manually set the reg key versus doing it with dnscmd? Darrell

Gary, Let me confuse things a bit more here. I would recommend not using Windows DNS as your caching server if you are using Windows 2003. It enables something called EDNS0 by default and some servers won't resolve lookups and this will cause some resolution based tests to not operate and some E-mail to bounce as undeliverable. You can disable ENDS0 using the directions from Microsoft's site, however unfortunately there is a bug that causes EDNS0 to re-enable itself on every reboot of your server and I have not figured out how to stop that from happening except to reapply the workaround after every reboot. You would be best served by purchasing Simple DNS (http://www.simpledns.com/) which doesn't have this issue, or having a Linux based DNS server of your own. No matter what, it is a bad idea to use someone else's DNS server for RBL lookups. Matt Gary Steiner wrote:
That may speed up resolution, but that's not my issue. The question is why does SmarterMail catch the spam using the same ip4r tests? It is the same message, and the tests are being perfomed on the same eml file within a few seconds of each other. Why does Declude fail and SM succeed? Gary

How do I find that out?  It is just an address that my hosting provider
has given me.
I have no control over or way to access the DNS server. Gary

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] ip4r failure I've been having this problem with Declude going back to August and my
installation
of 2.0.6.  I'm currently running 3.0.6.4 with SmarterMail 2.6.  It
seems
that
irregularly Declude's ip4r tests time out, but SmarterMail redundantly
running the
same tests has no trouble picking up the spam.  I have SM and Declude
both
testing
SPAMCOP, DSBL, CBL, Spamhaus SBL, and Basura.  What will happen is a
spam
will
get through Declude, but get caught by SM using the same tests.  For
example,
following is from the header of a recent message:
X-RBL-Warning: NOLEGITCONTENT: No content unique to legitimate E-mail
detected.
X-RBL-Warning: IPNOTINMX:
X-RBL-Warning: DYNHELO: Dynamic HELO found.
X-Declude-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [69.205.200.200]
X-Declude-Spoolname: 45172055.eml
X-Declude-Note: Scanned by Declude 3.0.6.4
(http://www.declude.com/x-note.htm)
for spam.
X-Declude-Scan: Score [7] at 21:24:19 on 14 Mar 2006
X-Declude-Tests: NOLEGITCONTENT, IPNOTINMX, DYNHELO
X-Country-Chain: UNITED STATES->destination
X-SmarterMail-Spam: BAYESIAN FILTERING, CBL, SPAMCOP I went over this several times with Declude support, and the best they
were able to
come up with is for me to add "WINSOCKCLEANUP ON" to my declude.cfg,
which
changed nothing.  Using the DNS statement in the global.cfg also
produced
no effect.
Maybe now that Declude and SmarterTools have such a close
relationship,
Declude
can ask SmarterTools how their ip4r tests work.  Especially since
Declude
is supposed
to be using the DNS server information as set within SmarterMail.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?  I'm sure the next thing I
will
hear is that
this problem will go away if I upgrade to SM 3.0 and Declude 4.0. TIA, Gary
