I was under the impression that Postscreen kept a cache of the IP addresses

What is throwing me off is this :
postscreen_dnsbl_max_ttl :
The maximum amount of time that postscreen(8) will use the result from a
successful DNS-based reputation test before a client IP address is required
to pass that test again.

If the IP address and the result is cached, why not use those results to
drop the connection until the TTL has expired?
spamhaus provides records with 60s TTL. Since the next connect came 10
minutes later, the TTL expired already.
