Yes I know. I would say that maybe %20 to 30 percent of the spam at a
minimum I see come through has a dns query trigger in the scoring.
They are very important and so I will stepwise test. If I don't see
any improvement with the change in the spamd call you suggested and
the change in the system DNS server, then I'll test that.
Turning off all the network tests is generally a bad idea since they
