!st let me say that I am going to be building a new qmail toaster

I also very much wish to "better' my situation regarding spam.
I hope to employ spam dyke

and I am wondering what might my expectations be?
example

I have just gotten a whitelist request from a usr. for the dom of

alloyfx.com

www.blacklistalert.org/

dynamic.rhs.mailpolice.com /*LISTED!* /
**multi.uribl.com /*LISTED!* /
**webmail.rhs.mailpolice.com /*LISTED!*/

Yes, if one checks they are listed , likely they have no rdns

so - Am i to expect that this domaine will cont to need to be whitelisted
because they will continue to be 'listed"
>
so Q 1 , is that correct ? they will continue to be marked *** SPAM
***   - yes?

They'll need to be whitelisted in spamdyke in order to accept them. They can also be whitelisted in spamassassin to get rid of the *** SPAM *** subject tag, and to ensure that the scoring total there doesn't trigger a rejection.

Q2
do I need to do anything "special" beyond the bootstrap.sh 1 & 2  to get
spam dyke
( and any other anti Spam suggestions you may have )
going?

Nothing additional is required.

what am i to expect?

Generally, I would expect smooth sailing, with spamdyke rejecting 80%+ of incoming messages (without even receiving let alone scanning them!).

Caution: regarding the firewall, if your QMT is behind a nat'ing router (on a private subnet), you should adjust the firewall script accordingly. I hope to have Sebastian's fix for this in a subsequent release soon.
