OK, so now I've turned all recursion back on. As it is, I can't see any postings to the group because the SPAM ratings are all too high and they're being deleted. Let's hope things are back to normal.

Subject: SPAM [16][Declude.JunkMail] recursion turned off causes higher JM scores?


Hi All,

I was testing out our domain name at dnsreport.com, and it complained that we had recursion turn on at the DNS server. So I tried turning it off, and suddenly all our JM scores went through the roof. I've got a sample from some personal mail below. It looks to me like IPs weren't being resolved or something, because the it shows that no A or MX recording found in the sending domain, which is absurd.

We use MS DNS with MS Win2k Server. There are two places where recursion is listed: on the forwarders tab and on the Advanced tab. I originally had them both turned on, but had then turned them both off. That's when the JM scores got so high. I'm testing a different config now: allow recursion on the Forwarders tab, but disable it on the Advanced tab. I won't know if this works until I get some messages. In the meanwhile, can anyone explain this to me?

Thanks,

Ben
