SA 3.0 & SURBL tests sometimes being skipped

Hi All,

I have a sneaking suspicion that this has been covered recently, but
my cursorary searches of the archives showed nothing.

We've just rolled SA 3 out on one of our mail clusters, but the URIBL
tests seems to be skipped on some messages, leaving them scored too
low to be actioned.  I know the URL's in some of these messages are
listed in SURBL's and I can't seem to work out why the tests aren't
being run.

Does anyone have any ideas?  I'm running latest and greatest
everything including Net::DNS and SA.

Any help/poke in the eye's greatly appreciated :)

Yes, but for some reason only on a portion of the messages being processed.

Yes, I have just gone and removed all traces of Net::DNS and
re-installed on all boxes, I suspect that this may resolve it, but
let's see how it goes.

Confident this isn't the issue, we've been using SURBL since
SpamCopURI was first released, we're running DNS caching locally and
are seeing no timeouts in any logs.

Are you seeing any net tests being rul at all?  if not, you need to make
sure that you have net tests activated, and that SA is happy with the
version of Net::DNS (and a few other things) that re required.

If you are seeing SURBL working most of the time but not all, it sounds like
you may have net connectivity problems, and the connections are timing out.
