Scott,
Using your example below, on a good day, if I had 10 spam tests each taking 2
seconds, then let's say for sake of arguement, that this is ok. BUT what if one or
more of the 10 spam test, was taking 5-10 seconds per test, due to a querry overload
on one or more of the spam test servers (Ex: Spamcop). This is what I'm trying to
pervent. Did I explain this right?
Thanks,
jim

Help how?
Are you noticing any problems? If so, what are they?
For example, if E-mail is delayed a long time due to the DNS lookups, zone
transfers probably are not going to help (assuming that you are using IMail
v8's anti-spam, which does serial lookups, rather than in parallel like
Declude JunkMail). If you run 10 spam tests, each taking an average of 2
seconds each, and you change 2 to do zone transfers, you're still talking
about 16 seconds to run the spam tests instead of 20.
