Am I wrong? See also the FAQ entry at http://www.mimedefang.org/node.php?id=15 By default, MIMEDefang disables the SpamAssassin network tests: - RBL checks - Razor - DCC - Pyzor Look in your filter for $SALocalTestsOnly. The default value is 1. Change it to 0, and SpamAssassin will check the RBL's for you. By properly configuring SpamAssassin, you can also check Razor/DCC/Pyzor (all of these require additional programs/modules that aren't part of SpamAssassin).
