I am receiving many hits on *_IADB_* rules just fine recently for
emails
from constantcontact.com and others.
I'm receiving rule hits:

Yesterday instead of seeing host unreachable as I posted above I'm
seeing this

Sep 17 09:30:41 localhost named[1284]: REFUSED unexpected RCODE
resolving 'isipp.com/NS/IN': 168.150.251.35#53
Sep 17 09:30:41 localhost named[1284]: REFUSED unexpected RCODE
resolving 'concerto.isipp.com/A/IN': 168.150.251.35#53
Sep 17 09:30:41 localhost named[1284]: REFUSED unexpected RCODE
resolving '10.232.124.38.iadb.isipp.com/A/IN': 168.150.251.35#53
Why are you asking 168.150.251.35 to do DNS resolution for you? It is
not authoritative for isipp.com, so presumably you have a specific
local config causing you to use it. It is explicitly refusing to do
DNS resolution for you.

I honestly have no idea where that came about. I know that on Saturday
I was seeing this:

SERVFAIL unexpected RCODE resolving
'121.244.54.142.iadb.isipp.com/A/IN': 67.227.187.192#53

Then yesterday I started seeing

named[1284]: REFUSED unexpected RCODE resolving 'isipp.com/NS/IN':
168.150.251.35#53

So to be honest I have no idea where it's coming from. Something
appears to be messed up somewhere to be sure. However, I've made
absolutely no changes to anything.


Check your /etc/resolv.conf and make sure that something didn't change it. Most SA instances should have a local DNS caching server so /etc/resolv.conf should be pointing to 127.0.0.1 and the local DNS server should be doing it's own recursive lookups -- not forwarding to any other DNS server so your queries don't get combined with others and go over daily usages limits that many RBLs have. This has been covered extensively on this list if you want to search the archives for URIBL_BLOCKED.

Run a "dig +trace" from the SA server where the /etc/resolv.conf is pointed to 127.0.0.1 to troubleshoot and you should get some responses similar to this:

dig +trace 65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com

...
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.0.0.1
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.2.255.3
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.2.255.4
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.0.0.2
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.101.202.10
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.3.100.10
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.2.255.1
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.101.201.10
65.43.116.208.iadb.isipp.com. 3600 IN   A       127.0.1.255

If you don't get some 127.xx.xx.xx responses then look at the dig output to see where things stop. The first "hop" should be from 127.0.0.1 then start walking down the DNS tree from right to left.
