dnsbl.net.au Incorrectly Configured Networks

Servers (/32) which are incorrectly configured (as detailed below), are listed here.
Networks (/24) containing 2 or more incorrectly configured servers (/32), are also listed here.

Current retesting cycle is taking : hours

IP address to lookup  

Typical reasons for entry here are:

  • server sending email is already listed on one or more DNSBL services
  • server sending email has no reverse DNS entry (aka PTR)
  • domain name of envelope sender has no MX records
  • MX record entries have incorrect or missing A records
  • message ID domain part does not match with envelope sender address
  • network sending email is not the same network that would receive replies
  • envelope sender address appearing from multiply incorrectly configured servers

    All servers sending email into our network, with more that 2 errors, are automatically listed onto the ricn.dnsbl.net.au list.

    There are no current self removal methods, other than fixing the network configuration of the server wanting to send legitimate email.

    Steps you should take include:

  • consult with your local internet configuration professional.
  • ensure you get the server in question off all other dnsbl lists, first.
  • ensure all servers have correctly configured reverse DNS entries.
  • ensure domains which must receive email have correct MX records.
  • ensure each of those MX records, have correct A records also
  • configure your sending software to have the correct message ID format
  • ensure your outbound and inbound networks are one and the same

    NOTE: Where more than one server is listed in any Class C block (aka /24) we list the entire Class C (aka /24). Fix the security and configuration errors on those individual servers (/32) and the Class C (/24) entries will auto remove themselves.

    Server tests are carried out upon initial email transaction, with retests carried out each day.
