As a user of your MD plugin since it's Beta release, it has worked perfectly. SA can have problems with completely unrelated rules / tests should there be a syntax error in any one of SA's CF files. I'd suggest using ONLY the default SA installation rules to test, and/or running all CF rule

What version of MDaemon / SA are you running? This has worked perfectly for me for quite some time. MDaemon v9.07 has been released and includes Spam Assassin v3.15 which resolves some SA problems. Also, double check your local.cf file in SA to make sure your SNF rules are correct, with no tabs

My bet is that either OB or WS trees of SURBL are the culprit. I've seen false postives from them before. Can your bot isolate the subs of the multi lookup and only use the more reliable ones like JP, SC, etc? Also, these are dynamic services and can change at any time... Sometimes in minutes.

There is a problem IMO when you have over 250 users in Ldaemon. What I have found the culprit to be are the Schema Extensions that Alt-N added to OpenLDAP in an attempt to make it an option for storing all system account information. If you are using Ldaemon as you system database, change over to
