Yes, that is good information. Sure appreciate your feedback. > There is much more to do when rating things then just do some simple > counting.

I'm hoping to stay on topic with the RBLs and as they pertain to SA, so I would also like to determine how to make an educated decision. I've done some further research, and have found a few more useful comparisons to add to the list: http://spamlinks.net/filter-dnsbl-lists.htm At the bottom of this page is a section that lists other comparisons. It would be nice to know how current they are, however. The link also contains a handful of neat command-line tools and libraries that can be used to query the RBLs. I'm especially interested in using multi.uribl.com and zen.spamhaus.org at SMTP restriction time. However, it seems like zen is the one that is most popular. Should uribl.com not be used for this? At SMTP time, are there others that people should consider using? This would be really helpful, because there doesn't seem to be any authoritative info out there about achieving the best configuration, outside of simple trial-and-error. Thanks, Alex
