skip_rbl_checks 1
is correct as in MCP you don't want to do RBL lookups. As MCP is just 
content-filtering, it doesn't want to do any network-based checks at all.
What sort of thing are you trying to stop? I can write a couple of 
examples for you if you like. But there is already an example in the mcp 
directory anyway, can't you just work from that? More docs on what you 
can do in there is in "man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf".
