What is DozRBL

Doz Reputation Block List (DozRBL) is a standard DNSBL (Domain Name System Block List) that can be used to reduce spam volume on many popular email systems, including Zimbra, Exim, Postfix, and other email servers. DNSBL systems list IP addresses, often those that have been observed by the list operator to be sending spam or hosting spammers. By adding DNSBL entries to an email server configuration, those email servers can either reject connection attempts from listed IP addresses or use that listing to apply appropriate filtering policy.

DNSBLs are sometimes called RBLs (Realtime Blackhole Lists), or just BLs (Block/Black lists).


DozRBL Usage

The DozRBL can be used by all modern mail servers and it does not require additional software to be installed. It can be enabled easily by setting your mail server's anti-spam DNSBL feature to query: rbl.dozty.net


Testing DozRBL

You can manually test access from the command line interface of your mail server operating system.


Linux OS:

host 2.0.0.127.rbl.dozty.net


Windows OS:

nslookup 2.0.0.127.rbl.dozty.net


If the IP address is blacklisted, you should receive a response such as 127.0.0.X


Blacklist Removal / Whitelist Request
