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
