Hi, on my server i didn't use both filter so far. Most connections were block by RBL-Match. But when i saw i what order the filters are used (i also missed that like Eric), i switched both on again. When it save time, why not use it?
Nevertheless, also with both filter disabled, spamdyke has blocked 96% and more connections. I use a dnswl, ip whitelist and some (less than 5) senders i have whitelisted. No Problems were reported by my users. Everyone i happy, that almost *no* spam is comming in. I love spamdyke!
