That isn't a SA thing.. So it doesn't matter. That enables RBL checking in
MailScanner. Any message matching one of those RBLs will be spam tagged, no
matter what SpamAssassin says.

I personally have yet to see an RBL I trust enough to be an absolute spam
criteria, but your results and sensitivity to FPs may differ from mine.

Then you don't have a proper install of SA 3.0.0 or higher. Did you install from
a distro-package, or from the source tarball?

SA 3.0.0 and higher should add "init.pre".
SA 3.1.0 and higher should add "v310.pre" (in addition to init.pre)


If the init.pre is missing, and you installed from a distro package, send the
maintainer a nastygram and re-install from the tarball. (who knows what other
files they neglected to put in the right places)
