How do I fix this problem?
Remember when the "perl Makefile.pl" warned you that checking network rules could cause make test to fail, but you turned them on anyway?
Check network rules during 'make test' (test scripts may fail due to network problems)? (y/n) [n]
Anyway:
1) check your resolv.conf verify that each of the listed DNS servers works properly.
$cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 1.1.1.1
nameserver 2.2.2.2
$dig @1.1.1.1 www.spamassassin.org
$dig @2.2.2.2 www.spamassassin.org
etc.
The results from dig should have an "ANSWER SECTION". If it's missing, and you only get back a question section and authority section the resolve failed.
2) Check that you can manually resolve the test that failed
$host 134.88.73.210.dnsbltest.spamassassin.org
134.88.73.210.dnsbltest.spamassassin.org has address 127.0.0.43) You can try to re-run make test, and it should work if #2 works, or you can re-do the build from scratch and this time tell SA to not test the network tests.
