Re: Blackhole DNS

John,

I set this up last night as was very impressed; only had "relays.ordb.org" and was getting nil filtering -- a fraction of what my subject and body filters were getting.

Using all three, the rbl_filter trapped 75-80% of what my "aggressive" subject and body filters are getting.

If rbl filtering gets this good, my not need subject or body filters :)

seem to be pretty accurate for our needs.
