    first errpr is you added it to a pre file, next is that it is in

    did you or debian run sa-update ?


Hi Benny,

I ran sa-update. As you pointed out, there are a number of RBLs in the standard configuration that for some reason aren't checked, thus I thought I could easily fix that by adding them to local.cf <http://local.cf> and when that didn't work I tried in init.pre. I do see other RBL generated scores in the message headers, so it appears that some RBL checks are indeed performed.


    what gives spamassassin 2>&1 -D --lint | less


<snip>
Do you see any obvious problems?

Hmm, --lint isn't really the best option for a DNS problem. --lint implies local-only mode, which limits its usefulness for this particular kind of issue.

I can see you do have Net::DNS installed, which is good:
Sep  2 16:56:51.709 [986] dbg: dns: is Net::DNS::Resolver available? yes
Sep  2 16:56:51.709 [986] dbg: dns: Net::DNS version: 0.63

and I don't see any parse errors, which is also good..

Sep  2 16:56:53.771 [986] dbg: dns: is DNS available? 0
Sep  2 16:56:53.771 [986] dbg: rules: local tests only, ignoring RBL eval
But local-only mode is enforced, cutting our investigation short.

Can you try again using a message, such as the sample-spam.txt that comes with the SA tarball.

spamassassin < sample-spam.txt 2>&1 -D

In particular, we want to look at the "dbg: dns: is DNS available?" line and other DNS related ones nearby.




Thanks!
 Chris
