Thanks for that info Jake. (My customers are mainly using dynamic IPs)
I'm using qmail-toaster-1.03-1.3.5 - does that have the port 587 submission? Also in the newer versions that have this facility is 587 the standard port used, or do you need switch it over to that port. If the latter then how?

I have one server that ONLY uses zen.spamhaus.org in my /var/qmail/control/blacklists and I have had 10 users this week alone (on different ISPs - Roadrunner, Sprint, Comcast) that have complained to me they were not able to send emails from their home network. I move them to the submission port and all is well. Just seems since Spamhaus is merging several lists together that some of the more restrictive ones are being merged into zen. Anyone else had similar issues?On the newer version of Toaster there is a submission port, port 587, that allows your users to send emails after SMTP-AUTH without being checked against the blacklist. If the user is coming from a static IP you can add an entry in tcp.smtp to allow their IP to pass emails without being checked against the blacklists (still subject to SMTP-AUTH as well, but they would still be able to send on port 25): 66.251.213.44:allow,RELAYCLIENT="",RBLSMTPD=""
