For over a week now, I have been seeing DNS look-up failures - always
with mailspike, both whitelist and blacklist. It is affecting about
ten percent of my non-whitelisted connections.
Jul 21 15:10:28 geronimo postfix/dnsblog[27737]: warning: dnsblog_query:
lookup error for DNS query 163.123.219.112.bl.mailspike.net: Host or
domain name not found. Name service error for
name=163.123.219.112.bl.mailspike.net type=A: Host not found, try again.
Are other people experiencing similar difficulties, or is it my set-up?
Regards
Allen C
