Question though: I thought razor and pyzor both queried the same database,
so it only makes sense to use one or the other of those two, while DCC uses
a different database.

Ie choose either razor or pyzor, both of which hit cloudmark's database, and
then add dcc, which queries a second database.

Is that incorrect?  (A simple "yes, that's incorrect" or "no, that's
correct" will suffice. :-) )

Clear as mud?
