Need peer review of my pf/spamd config

I think my pf / spamd config is correct and running
well, but I'm not entirely sure and would appreciate
any suggestions, corrections or optimizations.

/var/log/spamd shows activity of hosts being
grey-trapped, marked as (BLACK) or (GREY); spamdb
shows trapped and white hosts.

However, 'pfctl -t spamd -T show' shows nothing in the
table ( is being populated), and
'pfctl -sT -vv' shows that has had no
addresses and no matches. 209.210.237.2 is hitting
spamd constantly, and I would expect it to be
blacklisted into at the least. Given that,
does my pf.conf seem correct?

=================================================

Relevant portions of my pf.conf:

table persist
table persist
table persist file
"/etc/mail/spamd-my-whitelist.txt"

rdr on $ext_if inet proto tcp from
to \
{ $ext_if, $localnet, $dmznet } port smtp ->
$mailserver port smtp
rdr pass on $ext_if inet proto tcp from to \
{ $ext_if, $localnet, $dmznet } port smtp ->
127.0.0.1 port spamd
rdr pass on $ext_if inet proto tcp from !
to \
{ $ext_if, $localnet, $dmznet } port smtp ->
127.0.0.1 port spamd
rdr on $ext_if inet proto tcp from to \
{ $ext_if, $localnet, $dmznet } port smtp ->
$mailserver port smtp

# Enable logging of certain SMTP transactions so
spamlogd can
# update . Connections from MTAs in my
custom
# don't need to be logged.

pass in quick on $ext_if inet proto tcp from
\
to any port smtp synproxy state
pass in log (to pflog1) quick on $ext_if inet proto
tcp from \
to any port smtp synproxy state
pass out log (to pflog1) quick on $ext_if inet proto
tcp from $mailserver \
to any port smtp synproxy state

=================================================

The man page for spamd says:

>>
When a host that is currently greylisted
attempts to send mail to a spamtrap address, it
is blacklisted for 24
hours by adding the host to the spamd blacklist
.
<<

Should I also have an rdr rule for ?

=================================================

I'm using OpenBSD 4.2's default /etc/mail/spamd.conf.

I have created the pflog1 interface, tcpdump shows
traffic occasionally being logged to it, and spamlogd
is listening to pflog1. '/usr/libexec/spamd-setup' is
uncommented in root's crontab, and runs hourly.

My /etc/rc.conf.local:

spamd_flags="-v -G 15:4:864 -l 127.0.0.1 -h
host.example.com -n Postfix"
spamd_black=NO
spamd_grey=YES
spamlogd_flags="-l pflog1"
