Hmm... I don't see "SPAM? Host is blacklisted per RBL" anywhere in my SIMS logs, so I assume my connection to MAPS isn't set up properly.
Here's some info about (apparently faulty) my setup: In SIMS' SMTP panel, I've got "use blacklist DNS servers" checked, "rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org" listed as the RBL server, and "127.0.0.2" as a blacklisted address. DNSpro and SIMS are running on the same machine (same IP). The machine is behind a NAT, with a static translation for the server. I've given MAPS the public IP of my mail and DNS server (the same IP for both). What am I missing? I've no other apparent problems with my setup.
