Hello Robin,

        You raise a very important question. How does OpenDNS handle for
us mail server folks the antispam (RBL, SURBL, MX) lookups for
non-existant domains? Funny thing, is they have "suggest" mailservers
use them for DNS queries.

I do not use this service as its claim to 'correct spelling mistakes'
must inherently chose one 'mistake' over another, sucks to be the guy
whose site isn't chosen. Additionally resolving false or mistyped
domains stands to break much spam filtering.

If you want reliable DNS root servers look no further than ORSN.net.
