Thanks for the link. I use OpenDNS and it looks like it is being
blocked. My mailserver is my gateway and only runs dnsmasq rather than
bind and I am only a home user, so, from your link, I fall under the
low
volume user section. Is there anyting reasonable I can do?

when you dnsmasq forwards queries to any other dns server instead
doing recursion itself the server you ask is contacting the rbl and
*any other* user using the same dns-server raises the count

the RBL server *never* will see your IP and can't distinct between you
and other users

*never* use a forwarind/ISP nameserver for a inbound MX
If I understand you, I don't. I have my own domain and my mx record
points to my dyndns FQDN

if you dnsmasq forward to OpenDNS you do

Ok, but how does it help me? From what I've read it seems dnsmasq can
only do recursion. If I keep dnsmasq then I would need to point it to
another iterative DNS resolver running on my box such as PowerDNS or
BIND rather than to OpenDNS or have I misunderstood? Is there something
simple I can do with dnamasq or OpenDNS?

no idea why you insist in dnsmasq and especially opendns
a unbound or bind default setup does recursion

"dnsmasq can only do recursion" - jesus NO - when you did something like
below it is a forwarding server - just try to UNDERSTAND the link above
explaining HWAT dns-recursion is - IT IS NOT "use a specific nameserver
like below for resolving"

independent that they don't do it now (as far as i can see) THIS IS NOTHING a dns provider ever should do and BREAKS MAIL HEAVILY because of missing NXDOMAIN respones

opendns has NOTHING to do with "open" or "opensource"

OpenDNS is a company and service which extends the Domain Name System (DNS) by adding features such as phishing protection and optional content filtering to traditional recursive DNS services

THIS IS NOT FOR INBOUND MAILSERVERS
THIS IS NOT RECURSION
THIS BREAKS SPAMFILTERING

Thanks for the references. In the past I registered with OpenDNS so I could turn off their advertising.
