Hello,

I'm also experiencing some issues with RDNS_NONE, for example:

I have other hosts that trigger the RDNS_NONE rule as well. They are never
enough to classify the message as spam, though. But it's kind of bothersome
that SA fires up a false positive for rDNS.

I'm really confused as to how SA parses the email to trigger (or not) the
RDNS_NONE rule.

Dan.
