I am not familiar with the network tests. Razor or URIBL. Are they straightforward to setup? What are they're puposes?

Amavis only tags local mail, so you have to tell it which domains are local. > Now I am finding that they spam scores being given emails are often > quite low, at least they are lower then I would expect.

With a normall SA install running the net tests, you should be fairly safe with the default settings. I would worry much more about the kill level than the tag levels. Of course, I don't use Amavis to run SA myself, so I can't give you a definitive answer here. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
