Ok, but how does it help me? From what I've read it seems dnsmasq can
only do recursion. If I keep dnsmasq then I would need to point it to
another iterative DNS resolver running on my box such as PowerDNS or
BIND rather than to OpenDNS or have I misunderstood? Is there
something simple I can do with dnamasq or OpenDNS?

Nick, you would do some of us (at least me) a favor, if you used plaintext
mail, not html to mailing lists.

all you need to make sure is that if you have dnsmasq you only miss one single change

/etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 127.0.0.1

thats all, make sure it does not change on boot

it's apparently configured like that.

The problem is that dnsmasq forwards to upstream DNS server(s), which is
(are) most probably blacklisted.

Simply said, for spam filtering you need own recursive DNS server, and ISP
that allows you to use it, and doesn't redirect DNS traffic to its servers.
