Spamassassing not doing DNSBL lookup
Hi
I have spamassassin setup ver 3.3.1 (MailScanner, ClamAV
and Sendmail). I have observed that it is not doing DNS blacklist
lookup. The setup is directly connected to Internet.
The Net::DNS is also installed and the version is 0.66.
In /etc/resolv.conf there is also only a single entry.
Please advise.
Regards
Milind Patil

Ah, okay. I'm not familiar with MailScanner so I can't offer any advice.
Perhaps someone else can, or if there's a MailScanner list you might be
able to ask there.

Hi
I run spamassassin via MailScanner and in the MailScanner I have
enabled the DNSBL check.

What is the command line you are using to run spamassassin / spamd? You
may have provided the command-line option that disables network checks.
