Looks like Spamhaus.org service is down for some reason. I have used it for DNS blacklisting.
As a result all messages sent to my domain for past 17 hours have been blacklisted :(. Thanks god I have debug logs, at least can trace for valid senders to ask to resend.
Anyone experienced that problem for past 24 hours?

Looks like service is back to normal... However, I can not find statement on the site explaining what have happened, why all mail checked during past 17 hours where marked as sent from blacklisted domain...

Just wana know what have happened.
In fact if the service is down, it should not return "black" responses.

because they have a lot of false positives and end up blocking out valid senders.

It is better to get 100 spam a day than to miss ONE business opportunity.
