Joe Jared set the Osirusoft DNSbl server(s) to return "127.0.0.2",
which means "it's listed!", to _any_ query. This was not an 
accident, and the effect is that if you're blocking based on 
results from Osirusoft, you'll see no mail. If you're _scoring_
based on Osirusoft, you'll see a hit on the Osirusoft rule(s)
for every mail. 

You _should_ be zeroing all their tests, unless you really want 
false positives.
