Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/2148

Impacted versions

All.

Steps to reproduce

Just have any domain in modoboa.

Current behavior

Getting a lot of service emails:

Modoboa detected that domain example.com is listed by the following DNSBL providers:


  bl.spamcop.net: example2.com (1.1.1.1) for example.com 


The domain's reputation will be affected and there is a chance that emails coming from it are considered as spam. You should contact those providers and ask them to unlist detected IP address(es).

Expected behavior

spamcop.net domain is expired, this service is not working anymore and so those reports should be considered as false-positive.

Hi, I'm still using and actively reporting mail to Spamcop. The domain is not expired and is renewed until 1/30/2022. What makes you think the service isn't working anymore?

Seems no longer an issue, just got a few modoboa mails with errors but can't find it back in the interface. spamcop doesn't list me either.

Looks like this was just a temporary issue.
