SORBS only lists IPs not domain names.

so, by process of deduction:


;; ANSWER SECTION:
mms.vic.edu.au.         300     IN      MX      10 mail.mms.vic.edu.au.

;; ANSWER SECTION:
mail.mms.vic.edu.au.    157     IN      A       150.101.158.78


we are talking about 150.101.158.78, no?


looking up that IP at openrbl.org gives...

"Dynamic IP Addresses"

;; ANSWER SECTION:
78.158.101.150.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN   PTR eth2639.vic.adsl.internode.on.net.


SORBS have decided that they have a dynamic IP. perhaps submit a request
indicating that it really is a static IP.

they probably made this judgement based on the fact they have generic
reverse DNS. perhaps try to get internode to change the reverse DNS to
something non-generic.
