Hi,

I've got HMailServer 4.4 B270 version running on my mail-server machine. I've been getting error files in the logs as follows

"ERROR" 2580 "2008-01-22 02:38:35.228" "Source: DNSResolver::_Resolve, Code: HM10081, Description: DNS query failure. Treating as temporary failure. Query: elemental-artistry.com, Type: 15, DnsQuery return value: 9002."

I have deactivated relays.ordl.org from DNS blacklists while having the following activated
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org
bl.spamcop.net
multi.surbl.org

Are these errors to do with one of those activated ones?

Thank you in advance

relays.ordb.org was shut down a long time ago.

Unsure why the others are failing though. can you manually lookup using a cmd prompt elemental-artistry.com?

I just tried it from here and it failed

*** DMZ.hellscream can't find elemental-artistry.com: Server failed

Hi ^Doom^,

Nope, it failed here too. Do you have the same issue with your Hmailserver also?

Thank you in advance

I get a lot of these too but have resigned and accepted that "it's just one of those things".
What I do see when investigating the domains in error, the domains do exist (using WhoIs) but no IP address is assigned to them.

If by issue you mean it cannot resolve those domains then yes those domains DNS are broken this is not a problem with your setup.
