URIBL_BLOCKED usually means that you've exceeded the daily free use
limit on URIBL queries.
What DNS server are you using? If its a public one belonging to your ISP
or Google, that explains why the blacklists think you exceeded the free
limit: they count queries per DNS server since that's what sends the
queries to them. To avoid this you should be running a private,
non-forwarding DNS server.
I run DNS on my network. I think it should be caching, but maybe that's
broken? The thing is, I've had this email at this domain name for
over a decade now, no, maybe to the mid 90's? Maybe it's just that I
get a HUGE amount of spam. It is a spectacular flow to watch it all go
through here.
I did disable the dns black whole servers seeing this. So maybe my
first instinct on this was correct. We'll see if it gets better.
