Hi Jeff,

Yes, I get that result :)

However when I do an nslookup on "sbl.spamhaus.org" I get:

Server:         212.113.196.3
Address:        212.113.196.3#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find sbl.spamhaus.org: No answer

I presume this is intended behaviour when the dig statement above works.
As it happens I am also seeing URIBL_SBL hits in my spam now so
obviously it is querying the RBL correctly.

Thanks all for your help.

Daz
