NXDOMAIN == Non-eXistant Domain == "host does not exist" :-)

Ok, then I'm really confused now. Because according to my log, InSpammerBlacklist is saying these hosts DO exist.


While I'm in this testing phase, I'm not actually ditching the emails that match InSpammerBlacklist, I'm just adding a mail header to them and flagging those mails with a different color in my inbox.

For example, emails sent from localhost:

# java -cp lib/dnsjava-1.3.2.jar dig 1.0.0.127.relays.ordb.org
; java dig 0.0
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: STATUS, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 24769

From my mailet log:

InSpammerBlacklist: Looking up 127.0.0.1: 1.0.0.127.relays.ordb.org
InSpammerBlacklist: 1.0.0.127.relays.ordb.org exists

The way it determines if it exists is by doing a getByName() and if an UnknownHostException is not thrown, then the host exists.
