First off, I'd like to thank you again for your and others help, Theo. I would have been completely lost without your help and suggestions, and I really appreciate your patience. I finally got a chance to take a look at this with debugging enabled (been very busy here), and noticed the following output: Dec 8 10:08:13 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: DNS: timeout for rfci_envfrom after 15 seconds Dec 8 10:08:13 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: DNS: timeout for NO_DNS_FOR_FROM after 15 seconds Dec 8 10:08:13 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: DNS: timeout for ahbl after 15 seconds Dec 8 10:08:13 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: DNS: timeout for NO_DNS_FOR_FROM after 15 seconds Also worth noting: Dec 8 10:07:58 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: URIDNSBL: domains to query: Dec 8 10:07:58 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: is Net::DNS::Resolver available? yes Dec 8 10:07:58 dhgsrv17 spamd[1880]: debug: Net::DNS version: 0.45 Now, I believe the problem *may* be due to the fact that I'm relaying off this host by connecting from my workstation on the SMTP port, with no reverse DNS entry. Is it possible the resolver is timing trying to reverse my private IP address to a valid host name?
