you got a local cachine name server on the machine? That helps.
I also turn off alot of the pure RBL's and only use the URIRBL's by adding this to my local.cf
# don't do all the RBL's just spamhause XBL score __RCVD_IN_NJABL 0.0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_DUL 0.0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_MULTI 0.0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_PROXY 0.0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_RELAY 0.0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_SPAM 0.0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_CGI 0.0 score __RCVD_IN_SORBS 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_HTTP 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_MISC 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_SMTP 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_SOCKS 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_WEB 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_BLOCK 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_ZOMBIE 0.0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL 0.0 score __RFC_IGNORANT_ENVFROM 0.0 score DNS_FROM_RFC_DSN 0.0 score DNS_FROM_RFC_POST 0.0 score DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE 0.0 score DNS_FROM_RFC_WHOIS 0.0 score DNS_FROM_RFC_BOGUSMX 0.0 score RCVD_IN_DSBL 0.0 score DNS_FROM_AHBL_RHSBL 0.0 score HABEAS_INFRINGER 0.0 score HABEAS_USER 0.0 score RCVD_IN_BSP_TRUSTED 0.0 score RCVD_IN_BSP_OTHER 0.0 score __SENDERBASE 0.0 score SB_NEW_BULK 0.0 score SB_NSP_VOLUME_SPIKE 0.0 score RCVD_IN_RSL 0.0 score RCVD_IN_MAPS_RBL 0.0 score RCVD_IN_MAPS_DUL 0.0 score RCVD_IN_MAPS_RSS 0.0 score RCVD_IN_MAPS_NML 0.0
make the scores zero turn off the rule (doesn't even run it). This may help quite alot

I recently upgraded from version 2 to 3 and my performance has gone to pot. It may just be that I need a much stronger computer for this version but I suspect it may be doing a lot of RBL checking. In version 2, I had all net checking turned off in local.cf. I think something is being checked now and I can't figure out where to find it.
Here's a header excerpt:
X-Spam-Report:
* 0.0 RCVD_BY_IP Received by mail server with no name
* 0.6 RCVD_HELO_IP_MISMATCH Received: HELO and IP do not match,
but should
* 1.5 RCVD_NUMERIC_HELO Received: contains an IP address used for HELO
* 0.1 HTML_40_50 BODY: Message is 40% to 50% HTML
* 0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message
* 1.5 MPART_ALT_DIFF BODY: HTML and text parts are different
* 0.6 URIBL_SBL Contains an URL listed in the SBL blocklist
* [URIs: dnek.com]
* 2.0 URIBL_AB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the AB SURBL blocklist
* [URIs: dnek.com]
* 0.5 URIBL_WS_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the WS SURBL blocklist
* [URIs: dnek.com]
* 2.0 URIBL_OB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the OB SURBL blocklist
* [URIs: dnek.com]
* 3.9 URIBL_SC_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the SC SURBL blocklist
* [URIs: dnek.com]
What blocklists are these? How do I tell my version which RBL's I want it to check? I think it's checking too many. or am I on the wrong track? I read a performance hit about losing local DNS listings for the blacklists. maybe that would help but I'd still need to know what lists to reference.
