Thank you. I added it and restarted postfix and started to get errors like these: [postfix/dnsblog] warning: dnsblog_query: lookup error for DNS query MASKED.list.dnswl.org: Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=MASKED.list.dnswl.org type=A: Host not found, try again I did some searching and I think this was due to my use of Google's DNS resolvers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). I added my host's DNS resolver first in the list and the errors seem to have stopped. Is that a good config? I also read a recommendation to set up a caching nameserver like unbound on the same machine as postfix. Is that the right thing to do? Is there a way to verify that everything is working properly? - Grant
