I've the same problems since yesterday .. I can't send a mail via smtp
auth for about 5 min or so, after that time it works again until the next
5 problem minutes.
I've tried to narrow the problem down.
during this 5 mins I get only this, after this I time I get the server
greeting. I've tried it from 5 computers (everyone in a other subnet and
other dns servers) always the same. on localhost it works always.
This looks very much like a reverse DNS problem.
I've used dig -x client_ip during this time to check if the dns stuff
works and yes that does.
I've following running, whichs is not the same as you've ?
BLACKLISTS="-block=blackholes.mail-abuse.org,BLOCK/127.0.0.2
-block=relays.mail-abuse.org,BLOCK/127.0.0.2
-block=dialups.mail-abuse.org,BLOCK/127.0.0.2"
Have you tried the following?
$ dig 225.85.30.195.blackholes.mail-abuse.org ANY
$ dig 225.85.30.195.blackholes.mail-abuse.org PTR
Currently, not even
$ dig blackholes.mail-abuse.org NS
works for me.
It seems[1] like the registration period for the "mail-abuse.net" domain has
expired, and MAPS LLC forgot to renew it.
