By "I can't resolve" I mean I can't dig or nslookup on it:
# nslookup sbl.spamhaus.org
** server can't find sbl.spamhaus.org: SERVFAIL

However I can resolve relays.ordb.org
Name:   relays.ordb.org
Address: 62.242.0.190

I set different servers and still can't resolve my RBLs except ordb.
Any thoughts?
