I hadn't thought about checking for an X-SpamTrap header.  That would be 
useful.

I get a zone transfer of relays.osirusoft.com so I want to make sure I 
utilize it as much as possible.  I didn't realize the SBL was being 
queried independantly.  I'll have to disable that.

I'll have to go back and look for that one.  I tend to make little 
mistakes like leave out a ' or a /.  Little things you know. :)  It's only 
1:30AM here.  That means I still have 4.5 hours before I *thump*.
