I am new to rspamd. I was busy installing rspamd on a machine where I have unbound set up. In the rspamd log I noticed:

2019-11-03 16:14:28 #63290(controller) <3nxzfe>; monitored; rspamd_monitored_dns_cb: DNS query blocked on multi.uribl.com (127.0.0.1 returned), possibly due to high volume

2019-11-03 16:37:14 #63290(controller) <k7m6sm>; monitored; rspamd_monitored_propagate_success: restoring dwl.dnswl.org after 2619.0 seconds of downtime, total downtime: 2619.0

So, some config problem with rspamd, apparently. But what really caught my eye was

when querying for '1.0.0.127.dwl.dnswl.org'(likely DNS spoofing or BL internal issues)

But these domains are not resolvable:

albus:~ sysbh$ nslookup multi.uribl.com
Server:		192.168.2.66
Address:	192.168.2.66#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find multi.uribl.com: No answer

albus:~ sysbh$ nslookup dwl.dnswl.org
Server:		192.168.2.66
Address:	192.168.2.66#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find dwl.dnswl.org: No answer

So, why is rspamd reporting this? What does it mean?
