Thats not the way DNS works. DNS looks the address up once, and then 
it's cached until the ttl runs out. Then it looks it up again. If it's 
still there, it caches it again. Very minimal cost if you ask me.

And from my experience, it works very well. I received 25 spam messages 
marked as such and appropriately filed by procmail. I received one 
(count em, one) false negative, which I moved to my spamscan folder so 
my copy of spamassassin can learn to block that one too.

An aside here. Spamassassin is also caching the virii for me, since I 
threw those in the spamscan folder too.
