Based on everyone's feed back, i put Spamhaus as my first sendmail dnsbl. It blocked 27,283 connections since 10:33am today. Sweet. No complaints yet. Do these rejects show up in the mailstats command? I am graphing with rrdtool the esmtp msgsrej data, but i'm guessing the dnsbl is showing up under C (TCP connections) row msgsrej. What's the difference between the esmtp msgsrej and the tcp msgsrej?
