--- Comment #19 from D. Stussy <[email protected]> 2011-12-13 21:26:59 UTC --- "... hold off on subsequent DNSBL queries for 1 hour." I just made a suggestion to the authors of the above cited draft, and in my suggestion, I indicated that perhaps queries to the offending DNS-based list be disabled until reconfiguration or manual restart without a time limit. We don't know what time quantum the list maintainer may hae selected over which to determine excessive queries or even if such is a constant (vs. lengthened periods for each time a query source is blocked, including "permanently"). Although one hour may be reasonable for a "first" test after detecting a problem, maybe subsequent retries after continued failure should be much later. In that respect, I suggest starting with 1 hour, but then add half the time for each subsequent failure, producing a series: 1, 1.5, 2.25, 3.375, 5.0625, .... -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
