But I have plenty of hits where the RBL lookups work fine and block
messages (or let them pass through). If my DNS was problematic, wouldn't
it fail for all RBL lookups ?

Every "RBL lookup error" IP I have manually tested with nslookup
returned multiple ip addresses as response to the zen.spamhaus.org
request. But I can't say that they ALL did it because I didn't test all
such messages.

Similarly, every IP that was succesfully rejected had only one response
when using nslookup. (but can't say ALL because I only tested a sample).






An example where it works:

May 21 04:58:31 velo postfix/smtpd[94073]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from
p5099e3b4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de[80.153.227.180]: 521 5.7.1
www.spamhaus.org considers your IP address 80.153.227.180 as
inappropriate; from=<aahonuryk3...@t-ipconnect.de>
to=<jfme...@vixenation.ca> proto=ESMTP helo=<t-ipconnect.de>


Postfix finds the message format in my
rbl_reply_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/rbl_reply_maps

And I have:
reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org,
in the smtpd_recipient_restrictions



A non privileged user is able to read /etc/resolv.conf


What else should I look for/test ?
