Please discuss and verify before we alter the main how-to. It could well be the db keys are not there by default, but are taken into consideration once present. If so or suspect so, please raise a bug before disrupting documentation with unconfirmed possible issues. We can not issue warnings just like that.

===RBLList===
 
config delprop qpsmtpd  RBLList
 
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/initialize-default-databases
 
 
 
gives
 
 
 
RBLList=bl.spamcop.net:combined.njabl.org:dnsbl.ahbl.org:dnsbl-1.uceprotect.net:dnsbl-2.uceprotect.net:list.dsbl.org:multihop.dsbl.org:psbl.surriel.com:zen.spamhaus.org
 
 
 
so why are we saying the following, isn't sme best practice
 
 
 
  Many will argue what's best but most would agree that you can set best-practice recommended settings by:
 
 
config setprop qpsmtpd RBLList zen.spamhaus.org:whois.rfc-ignorant.org:dnsbl.njabl.org
 
signal-event email-update

If I'm interpreting your question/post correctly....
 
 
 
I think the "best-practise" comment came from an earlier recommendation for "conservative" settings for RBLList. These settings were seen as non agressive, whereas the default settings that were in sme 7.0 (I think it was 7.0) when it was released, were more agressive and perhaps would block mail that some people wanted to receive.
 
 
 
Perhaps the words "best-practise recommended" should be replaced with "conservative non agressive".

Thanks Ray,
 
: is the current default still too aggressive ?
 
: is the suggested conservative value valid, and will it always be, ie if it can become outdated we should remove it
 
 
 
when there was a problem with an RBL before a fix was quickly released in smeupdates, if one of the wiki suggestions becomes outdated there is no automatic way to fix it
