Odd local.cf problem
I am running SpamAssassin 3.1.4 on a windows mail server, the local.cf
file is in /perl/site/etc/mail/spamassassin
This is what it looks like:

##############################################################
As you can see I have added about 6 mailservers as "trusted" and
disabled rbl checking or so I thought. messages from those mail
servers (the trusted ones) are still getting bounced for being on a
black list. Since spamassassin is running as an exe and is envoked
everytime mail is delivered it is loading the new config, I have
confirmed that by changing the required_score and I see that change
immediatly. For some reason Ican't whitelist or disable rbl checking.
Am I forgetting something or doing some thing wrong?
