Hello Dave, Thank you for testing our RBL/RWL Service, The IP in question above was listed 23 hours ago due to hitting a pristine spam trap source more than 10 times within the same day. The listings are time based and are removed once the timeout period has exceeded or manual delisting with remediation actions. -- If the host continues to hit the spam traps / honeypot then the timeout period is reset.
We would love to hear how your testing goes over the next few days and if you have any issues please do let us know.
