This is a problem that many are having since spammers were forced to change their methods a few months ago. Many of them now tie up the DNS lookup because they post their crap from new domains they created just to send spam from unidentifiable sources.
Several times a day, we get this "XXX can't be found" garbage, and it's mostly because of spammers. Funny thing is, because most ISPs are now blocking Port 25, almost no spam is getting through, but in its place we get this "can't be found" crap.
Pardon my crappy language; I'm in a mood over this.
switch to ei. that'll fix everything.
