<!-- The connect handler configuration -->

+ <!-- STOP - before you uncomment out the DNS RBL handler,
+ please take a moment to review each block list. We
+ have included some that various JAMES committers use,
+ but you must decide which, if any, are appropriate
+ for your environment. The mail servers hosting
+ @apache.org mailing lists, for example, use a
+ slightly different list than we have included below.
+ And it is likely that most JAMES committes also have
+ slightly different sets of lists. The SpamAssassin
+ user's list would be one good place to discuss the
+ measured quality of various block lists.
+
+ NOTA BENE: the domain names, below, are terminated
+ with '.' to ensure that they are absolute names in
+ DNS lookups. Under some circumstances, names that
+ are not explicitly absolute could be treated as
+ relative names, leading to incorrect results. This
+ has been observed on *nix and MS-Windows platforms
+ by users of multiple mail servers, and is not JAMES
+ specific. If you are unsure what this means for you,
+ please speak with your local system/network admins.
