FW: FW: Spamassassin only

[Paul Hamilton]

Julian,

This is no doubt a dumb question but where within its config
does SA determine which RBL lists to use, do we need to
specify them somewhere?

By removing the RBL's from "Spam List =" in MS, should we see the
RBL checking appear in our logs, when SA performs them?

Just set
Spam List =
and it won't do any RBL checking itself.
