Hi,
Many standard configurations of XMail use the server list.dsbl.org in the server.tab, CustMapsList setting. At the dsbl.org website http://dsbl.org there is a message dated 9-Mar-2009: "DSBL's list nameservers have continued to answer queries for 10 months after the list went off. From now on, DSBL list queries (to *.list.dsbl.org, *.multihop.dsbl.org and *.unconfirmed.dsbl.org) will go to the nonexistant nameserver stop-using-dsbl.dsbl.org, which resolves to the unroutable example IP address 192.0.2.1. This should keep nameservers everywhere working like they should, while slowing down spam filters that are still using DSBL. Hopefully the annoyance of the slowdown will convince the remaining DSBL users to stop using DSBL. DNS timeouts should not cause any email to get lost. Please stop using DSBL. The list has been empty for almost a year." In your server.tab file you need to change the setting for CustMapsList, if you are still using list.dsbl.org. A suitable replacement line might be: "CustMapsList" "zen.spamhaus.org.:1,bl.spamcop.net.:1" Jonty |
