there is a suggestion to make local mirrors of RBLs. I have not had much luck finding information on how to do this properly. Do you know of any links to relevant information?
Also, in terms of bandwidth usage, how much mail does spamassassin need to process (and check against DNS and RBL) before mirroring RBLs locally become economic? Obviously for our office with 6 people this would be a waste, but I'm considering this for bigger clients.
Hi,
I actually commented in that thread even though I had mod points, search for Jibber.
Most RBL's recommend you rsync or otherwise make a mirror of their RBL's if you are processing more than 250K requests a day. I'd say as low as 100K myself.
Anytime you mirror the RBL's locally, you will see a time improvement on processing.
Regards,
Rick
