Thanks, all seems OK now. I will see if I get much spam come in - I've 
had to disable razor2 in SA due to errors in my log but that's a little 
off topic for this list I guess.

Error goes away after disabling razor2 so if that's now me not doing RBL 
checks I will live with it for now and see what happens!

Cheers
