Package: logwatch
Version: 7.3.1-5
Severity: normal

SERVFAIL is a normal part of this computer (due to incomming spam I
think), it should not be classified as "Query form disallowed client":

  Query form disallowed client: 
    unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving '207.252.117.75.in-addr.arpa/PTR/IN': 
203.8.183.1#53: 1 Time(s) 
    unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving '129.31.52.211.in-addr.arpa/PTR/IN': 
202.173.159.5#53: 1 Time(s) 
    unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving 'MN2-CT-u-0465.mc.onolab.com/A/IN': 
62.42.63.51#53: 1 Time(s) 
    unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving 
'178.145.132.217.in-addr.arpa/PTR/IN': 203.8.183.1#53: 1 Time(s) 
[...]

In fact, these messages should probably just be ignored.

The regexp catches all errors:

   } elsif ( ($ThisLine =~ /unexpected RCODE ([^ ]+) resolving '[^ ]+': 
[0-9.#]+/) ){

I changed this to:

   } elsif ( ($ThisLine =~ /unexpected RCODE \(REFUSED\) resolving '[^ ]+': 
[0-9.#]+/) ){
      chomp($ThisLine);
      $DisallClient{$ThisLine}++;
   } elsif ( ($ThisLine =~ /unexpected RCODE ([^ ]+) resolving '[^ ]+': 
[0-9.#]+/) ){

(note: not sure if the unquoted brackets is a bug, they appear to be 
redundant..)

(ps. I suspect "form" is a typo of "from")
