Uh... wait... if you put an RBL into the RBL list, but don't ALSO put the 
those IPs into the blacklisted IPs list... then nothing actually happens?

I've got cbl and spamhaus in my RBL list, but I don't have the 127. IPs 
in the blacklist. I just checked my logs and see nothing about 
blacklisting per rbl.

Freaky... my spam has diminished considerably since I added the RBLs... I 
just assumed they were working. I also added two old spam filled user 
accounts as spam traps, so I guess maybe all the missing spam was getting 
bounced from those... or spammers just took a week off from hitting me :-)
