The users list would have been appropriate. Regarding the "search
failed" -- a search for a substring of that message does result in good
hits. Maybe you should have tried twice...

Sounds like WHOIS_UNLISTED. However, did you manually type in this line?
Read, did you alter the string? And indeed:

$ host mcssl.com.bl.open-whois.org
mcssl.com.bl.open-whois.org has address 127.0.0.13

Funnily enough, that rule is *not* in the 3.1 branch... Mind boggling.

If it actually is the above rule, you want to take this out with
open-whois.org [1]. We don't provide the list, SA merely queries it.

Any additional information *YOU* could provide would be appreciated.
Like the actual SA rule that's triggered, not just the descriptive
string.  HTH

[1] Note to devs: This seems to hint that open-whois.org data is lagging
    or even becoming stale. :(  Also, the website appears to be
    unresponsive. Their list archives are still alive.
