hmm..

then is this correct?

require message = some useful text here
verify = sender/callout
log_message = Verify failed (more txt here.. )

so does deny/drop -need- a condition then?

I was using the dnslists example as an example..

deny message = rejected because..
dnslists = dnsbl.domain.com

but I guess dnslists is it's own thing altogether then..
