Uh, I have a Win2003 DNS server running
here, and my IMail does not produce such delays. However, my IMail only is a
secondary DNS, the primary is a different computer (but also Win2003). Maybe it
only happens if IMail and DNS are on the same system and IMail actively queries
that same system?
To solve the
Windows 2003/Imail Anit-Spam/MS DNS service issue, you will either need to use
a different DNS service other than the MS one, (although I have not tested
this,) or use a different DNS server for resolution. (I have not tested this
either.)
The way I solved
the problem is disabling all Imail DNS based Anti-Spam
tests.

[IMail Forum] Frustrating Imail 8.11 + Windows 2003
Well, im starting to give up with
this Imail AntiSpam features, as i see it, they add tooooo much latency to
email delivery!
Currently, we bought down here a
server for Imail (IBM Dual Processor 2.8 Ghz Xeon, 2.5 GB RAM, Level 3 RAID 70
GB HD's + 3 E1 channels of direect internet access), and as i see it, nor even
hardware or network is my problem.
We only use BlackListing tests
(Mails last more than 5 minutes to deliver, EVEN LOCALY) , and if we turn on
the other A-SPAM features, mails get stuck at the queue for about 1 hour(The
only thing at the logs is that the procees is performing spam
checks).
I recently sended an email
to the list, and someone pointed out that Imail had some issues with Windows
2003 + MS.DNS (Wich is my config) but still can not figure out how to solve
the problem.
Tonight im planning to go back to
Windows 2000 server + DNS but I really want to know if this is normal
?.
My spamblkst.txt file looks
like:
#
NAME SERVER DOMAIN TO
QUERY TYPE ENABLED REJECT
SpamCop * bl.spamcop.net D T F
spamhaus * sbl.spamhaus.org D T F
Spamhaus-SBL+XBL * sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org D T F
Composite-Blocking-List * cbl.abuseat.org D T F
ORDB * relays.ordb.org D T F
DSBL * list.dsbl.org D T F
DNSRBL * spam.dnsrbl.net D T F
SORBS * dnsbl.sorbs.net D T F
Again, when you look at
the spam logs, i receive the following like a zillion of
times:
05:04
17:41
SMTPD(1c0618c2004ea8d6) [00002164] <geo.net.co> BLACKLIST: failed to
connect to service
(Composite-Blocking-List:*:cbl.abuseat.org)
And so on and on with any black
list......some emails get checked, others not!.
I dont know if i need
to convince my boss to buy another third party software (like Declude
JunkMail or IMGate), but the last Server
Investment promised to be the solution (Wich obviously was
not).
May it be that the spam config Im
using is wrong ???? (I still cant figure out the correct Server Parameter to
put at each list. I leave the * wich seams to work
)
Please, if someone has some
leading answers, it would be great!!!!!!!!!
