The hostname "bl.spamcop.net" as listed in the spamcop FAQ's with regard to tcpserver setups is not resolving. Enclosed below are my diagnostics for your reference.

host -t ns spamcop.net

spamcop.net name server ns1-117.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server use1.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server asia3.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server ns1-11.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server ns1-73.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server ns1-90.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server ns1-93.akam.net.

spamcop.net name server ns1-109.akam.net.

host bl.spamcop.net ns1-117.akam.net

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

host bl.spamcop.net ns1-73.akam.net

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

Perhaps the FAQ has the wrong hostname? Let me know. Thanks.

Everything is working correctly. The host bl.spamcop.net does not exist. The query should be formatted in the reverse dotted quad like this:

(to check and see if 127.0.0.2 is listed)

2.0.0.127.bl.spacop.net

The response of 127.0.0.2 shows that the IP is listed.

Got it. Works fine. Thank you much and sorry for the newbie question.

It might be better if you could identify the FAQ you did hit that didn't address the issue, so something can be done to fix that problem. I see one at http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/351.html which seems to suggest the same data provided here. The FAQ entry at http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/291.html dealing with configurations could be confusing, but not sure which one may have been included in your search for an answer.
