IPBlock cronjob doesn't clear blocked IP's in 4.25-14

After upgrading one of my mail servers to 4.25-14 and enabling IPBlock I
have noticed that blocked IP addresses are not being cleared from sendmails
rules.
When I run makemap on the IPBlock.db file I can see the IP being removed
after the cronjob runs.
I use deny.db rather than access.db.
I changed the IPBlock.pl cron to,
my $AccessDB = '/etc/mail/deny.db';
As well, I modified the CustomConfig.pm file to,
my $AccessDB = '/etc/mail/deny.db';
After the cronjob runs I can see that the deny.db has been altered by the
date change, but the offending IP is still in the deny.db file. If I run
makemap manually on the deny database the IP address is once again allowed
to relay.
I have another server that runs 4.24-5, although quite a different set-up it
works flawless using the deny.db.
Any ideas what I may have missed?
