Thanks for the reply, Jeff.
Uh oh, ping did not resolve to 127.0.0.2.

Hi Tom,
I believe Merak Mail Server uses SpamAssassin under Windows.
As such, you may want to check that basic DNS resolution works.
For example, on that server can you:
ping 2.0.0.127.multi.surbl.org
It doesn't matter whether the ping itself works, but does it
resolve to 127.0.0.2?
That may or may not have to do with the issue, but it's useful to
check in case a proxy server is interfering with DNS, for example.
Does anyone else here use Merak? If not you may need to continue
to work with the vendor.
You can find a list of some applications that support SURBLs at:

Cheers,
Jeff C.
