Back in June of 2023 I added list.dnswl.org to postscreen.

Over time I've noticed that I get the occasional lookup error like this:

postfix/dnsblog 17448 - - warning: dnsblog_query: lookup error for DNS query
137.52.152.104.list.dnswl.org: Host or domain name not found. Name service 
error for name=137.52.152.104.list.dnswl.org type=A: Host not found, try again 

As later lookups returned valid results, I had just put that down to some 
glitch with dnswl's servers. 

Yesterday I got this error for my ISP's outbound server, which I know is 
listed with dnswl. I thought I'd have a look at historical logs.  

Up to the date when I added list.dnswl.org, I had only zen.spamhaus.org in my 
postscreen_dnsbl_sites. 

Searching through my logs I see that, up until June last year, I had those 
same error logs but only for zen.  (To be expected, given that it was the only 
one in use.)

After that date, though, every logged error is for list.dnswl.org and 
there are none for zen.spamhaus.org.

Just wondering why that might be. 

My postscreen config:

postscreen_cache_map = btree:/var/db/postfix/postscreen_cache
postscreen_greet_action = enforce
postscreen_denylist_action = enforce
postscreen_dnsbl_allowlist_threshold = -1
postscreen_dnsbl_sites = list.dnswl.org*-6, zen.spamhaus.org*2
postscreen_dnsbl_action = enforce
postscreen_dnsbl_threshold = 2
