This will NOT work.  It will check in blacklists for the machine handing off
the mail only.  In your case then, it is only testing to see if your machine
scanning for viruses is blacklisted.  The only tests that will work are
phrase and statistical filtering.

> G'day,
>
> Installed V8 as an upgrade, everything went fine.
>
> Our setup is a little different - we have one mail
> server running Imail. However, we run a virus scanning
> SMTP service (Trend Interscan), which accepts incoming mail
> on port 25, scans all attachments, then forwards the
> mail onto Imail, which runs on the same server IP address,
> on a different port.
>
> I have added 5 RBL's to the system, and enabled
> them on the hosted domain.
>
> Problem: no anti-spam activity is occuring, and the logs
> show no checks being performed in either the sys logs
> or the spam logs (verbose mode is on).
>
> I have the slight feeling that any incoming email relayed to
> Imail by it's own IP address (i.e. relayed by our antivirus
> SMTP service) is trusted and not scanned.
>
> Can anyone shed any light on this?

> Thanks,
