I, too, have been encountering this out of memory problem and I like the 
suggestion of setting up a RBL server on my network. Bu I need a little 
clarification.

Wasn't it SIMS Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] who once said...

When you say "zone" do you mean what QuickDNS calls a "domain"? Right now 
I have our domain, "pecandeluxe.com" set up in QuickDNS. Do I set up a 
domain "rbl.pecandeluxe.com"? Is that legit?

You mean I should put "127.0.0.2" into the "Black Listed Addresses" page 
of the SIMS SMTP server?

Using my example above, the RBL server would be "rbl.pecandeluxe.com" and 
the query would be "dd.cc.bb.aa.rbl.pecandeluxe.com"?

Am I on track or totally out in left field?
