Hmmm, weird no such entries in my logs. I don't get it!
I tested ordb by sending mail to ask-test-ordb@??? as explained on
http://www.ordb.org/faq/#test_blocking I get a mail back telling me it
was blocked, but in the logs no entry of this blocking. What am I doing
wrong.

My setup is as follows.
Fetchmail grabs the mail from my ISP pop account. Fetchmail hands the
mail over to exim? right? so it should work.
In my exim.conf file I have this
...
rbl_domains = relays.ordb.org/reject : \
              sbl.spamhaus.org/reject : \
          bl.spamcop.net/reject


# check all hosts other than those on
# internal network
rbl_hosts = !192.168.1.0/24:0.0.0.0/0

Can somebody spot any problems?

> ./rblstats < /var/log/exim/exim_mainlog


Where can I find this rblstats prog?

Thanks
