Hi,

Just one comment, in my installation of SpamAssassin, it reports in
syslog as spamd, not at rblsmtpd. This looks like logs from the
rblsmtpd program that is not SpamAssasin.

As some one mentionned, one way to prevent false positive and too
agressive black lists is to use them through SpamAssassin only, where
the black list score is only part of the spaminess. The draw back is
that it puts more load the server and SpamAssassin that has to
scrutinize every email, while dropping at the SMTP level is fast and
uses very low resources.

Bests,

Olivier
