Phil, Bill,

Mark, I patched Dns.pm but this didn't resolve the issue for me.
You can test with the sample messages I posted to bugzilla:
http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5506

I was getting this sort of symptom without using Botnet.
It's almost as if something's deadlocking somewhere in SA
(until the timeout kicks in).

If the time spent by Razor+dcc+Botnet+(not sure what else)
is longer than rbl_timeout, then replies to RBL queries are
thrown away by mistake.

There is now an additional patch at:
  http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5511
which should fix this.

Mark, thanks for the patches. However, even with both Dns.pm patches applied, unless I set "rbl_timeout" to a high enough time interval, SA still misses the URIBL test results in the sample messages I posted in bugzilla 5506.

For example, if I set "rbl_timeout 15", I get no URIBL hit results. However, if I set "rbl_timeout 60", I do get URIBL hit results. This is because the 60 interval is long enough for Botnet's (in this case) RDNS test to timeout before the "rbl_timeout" interval.
