"The mind of a Mad Tech!"

To disable reverse lookups in qmail with Plesk,  you can  add -Rt0 to the server_args line in /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_psa


service smtp
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
disable = no
user = root
instances = UNLIMITED
server = /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env
server_args = -Rt0 /usr/sbin/rblsmtpd -r sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org /var/qmail/bin/relaylock /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /var/qmail/bin/smtp_auth /var/qmail/bin/true /var/qmail/bin/cmd5checkpw /var/qmail/bin/true
}


Once you have made the change, you will need to restart the Xinetd service;

# /etc/init.d/xinetd restart

*DNS reverse lookups will no longer be called. Please note if you make any changes in Plesk regarding mail it will overwrite the change that you just made.*
