[tlug] mail-abuse.org down

[Christopher SEKIYA <wileyc@example.com>]

All,

Sometime this morning, the ISC dropped off the face of the earth.  This is bad
because they host mail-abuse.org's blacklist DNS servers.

If your MTA is using any of the mail-abuse.org blacklists, your MTA is sending
lookup requests into a black hole ... and thereby failing to receive mail, as
the sending MTA will most likely timeout before the initial handshake happens.

FYI.
