That return code will be triggered if Spamhaus is unable to identify who is the original querier, and with a VPN endpoint that is most likely the case. If you still need to do queries over VPN, then you can simply subscribe for a free DQS account, as DQS accounts are not blocked in any way, except if you go over quota. -- Best regards, Riccardo Alfieri Spamhaus Technology https://www.spamhaustech.com/

Enforcing of new return codes for Spamhaus RBLs
Hello everyone, this is just a friendly heads up for everyone using our RBLs through the public mirrors. Beginning in March Spamhaus will start to enforce the return codes for these three new conditions announced in late 2019: 127.255.255.252 - Typing error in DNSBL Name 127.255.255.254 - Query via public/open resolver/generic unattributable rDNS 127.255.255.255 - Excessive Number of Queries SpamAssassin already has the codes in it's ruleset, so there is nothing really to do except check the logs in March to see that your are not hitting on any on them. Please see the article at https://www.spamhaus.org/news/article/807/using-our-public-mirrors-check-your-return-codes-now for more informations -- Best regards, Riccardo Alfieri Spamhaus Technology https://www.spamhaustech.com/
