Spamhaus requests doesn't resolve

  • Hoi Peter,

    I’m using your plugin on several sites and it works very well.
    Today I noticed a problem I have on some servers, for example on droplets from DigitalOcean. They use the public nameservers from Google and this setup doesn’t work for Spamhaus

    Check what DNS resolvers you are using: If you are using a free “open DNS resolver” service such as the Google Public DNS or large cloud/outsourced public DNS servers, such as Level3’s or Verizon’s, to resolve your DNSBL requests, in most cases you will receive a “not listed” (NXDOMAIN) reply from Spamhaus’ public DNSBL servers. We recommend using your own DNS servers when doing DNSBL queries to Spamhaus.

    Do you see a possibility to create this requests in different way?
    I think that the spamhaus option doesn’t work for many users. I have 5 servers with 3 different providers and only one (cloudvps.com) works.
