Hello All,
I have the following in my tcp rules file for smtp, and neither of
them seem to be taking effect:
127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
:allow,RBL=""
Then I have the exact examples from the wiki placed into the
/var/qmail/control/rbllist file, and I continue to get what I can
tell as open relays sending email to my users.
Any insight to this situation, is greatly appriciated. Also, I would
like to thank you all in advance.

I recently ran into a similar problem.
Due to legal issues some of the rbl's are no longer accepting queries
from certain parts of the world. If the rbl does not process your query
then it is the same as not checking the rbl.
Some of the blacklists are also not being maintained any more.
The solution is to use a different rbl.
Try one of these:
http://spamcop.net/
http://cbl.abuseat.org/
http://www.us.sorbs.net
I believe http://www.spamhaus.org/ is one of the rbl servers affected by
legal issues and may not be accessible from the USA.

Peter
