| 47 documents contain the string www.5iantlavalamp.com which is | |
| 48 associated with their smart tags stuff. That is currently hosted at | |
| 49 216.168.224.70, which is shared with a site that ended up on the | |
| 50 SBL. | |

| 99 Remove duplicate dns queries within the same smtp transaction from | |
| 100 the body content filtering. This helps if the mail server does not | |
| 101 have a nearby caching dns server. | |
| 102 | |
| 103 Add host_soft_limit config keyword. Use only one of host_limit or | |
| 104 host_soft_limit, since the last one wins. The host_limit is a hard | |
| 105 upper limit on the number of host names in a message. The | |
| 106 host_soft_limit allows unlimited host names, but only checks a | |
| 107 random sample of them against the dnsbl. | |

| 109 The main thread has dropped root priviledges, but other threads | |
| 110 are still running as root. This needs to be fixed. |
