A domain blocked but not listed on any RBL or SURBL

[Irina <ir...@nas.net>]

Hello all,

Really strange about this.  A message was marked as spam with
    URIBL_SBL Contains an URL listed in the SBL blocklist
    *      [URIs: mcleishorlando.com]

Checked at
    http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi
it says it is not listed there.

I even went through
    http://www.dnsstuff.com
spam database lookup.  It is not listed on any of them.

Not really sure.  Can someone help?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Irina

The messages contains a URL pointing to
 
http://mcleishorlando.com/something
 
that's why it was blocked, just like the message tells you.

Look up the NS record for the domain, it's the nameserver that's listed
in SBL.

It may have been listed when the mail went through, then de-listed later.

SBL does not list domain names, it blacklists IP addresses.

So SpamAssassin must resolve domain names into IP addresses in
order to check them against SBL.

Therefore an IP address associated with that domain name is
blacklisted on SBL.
