I say leave that to the DNS server. We cache DNSBL(it's not RBL) and URIBL because we query the external DNS server directly. PRT and TXT(spf) use the locally configured DNS servers for lookups. It the locally configured servers are doing caching properly there is only a millisecond lookup time. The time, effort, and server resources for doing this type of caching would not improve the performance of ASSP at all IMHO. I fact it might make it slower due to the more processing it has to do internally. Kevin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
