Julian, Denis, Matt,

Thanks for the quick response! It's working perfectly now.

Any suggestions on which spam lists to use?

I'm currently using: ORDB-RBL spamhaus.org spamhaus-XBL SBL+XBL
spamcop.net SORBS-DNSBL SORBS-DUL CBL RSL DSBL BLITZEDALL

I haven't updated the list for at least a year.

Greeting,
Remy.
