Did you solve this problem in the meantime? Unfortunately this also affects my low-email-traffic Hetzner vserver, too. I also use a local DNS (unbound). From what I figured out, any requests to spamhaus servers from any IPv4 or IPv6 address of most Hetzner subnets are ignored. If I do the request from any other IP (outside Hetzner) it works. Nevertheless, this IP blocking issue is a different one than the CNAME issue discussed here.

Unfortunately this issue affects one of the servers @Hetzner that Apache Lucene is using to test their builds. The issue started around December 15th, 2017.

I would have to assume bad behavior on Hetzner's part.

Hi,

Thanks Stephan, the same happened to me. It is still unclear to me, why they not simply blocked the Hetzner recursive name servers instead of everything. The offered solution is also fine, but bad for other users of their service through SpamAssassin or Postfix, correctly setting everything up using a local (e.g., unbound) recursive DNS server.

Yes, I was contaced by a key account manager of Spamhaus. I got a free 
datafeed query service key.

Maybe you could contact Spamhaus to tell them about your problems?

Shade and sweet water!
