It's true I did post this list.

I turn just about RBL off in spamassassin, only running a couple..

It's basically of turning on the RBLs

In /etc/mail/spamassassin/mailscanner.cf..

# skip_rbl_checks 1   (make sure this is commented out)


Then changing the score to zero of the ones you DON'T want to run

Find these in 20_dnsbl_tests.cf, then in mailscanner.cf

score RCVD_IN_SBL 0.0
score RCVD_IN_XBL 0.0
score __RCVD_IN_NJABL 0.0
