Failed update_bad_phishing_sites

Tue Jun 3 15:50:58 IST 2014

I have been receiving these messages from my hourly cron job for a while
now and I am struggling to find the solution.

running hourly cronjob scripts

SCRIPT: update_bad_phishing_sites exited with RETURNCODE = 2.

Running the update_bad_phishing_sites script from the command line I see
the following indicating that cdn.mailscanner.info doesn't resolve.

I read the "State of cdn.mailscanner.info?" thread from late May in
which Glenn Steen suggested a CNAME to point the cdn.mailscanner.info to
www.mailscanner.eu.  www.mailscanner.eu resolves to 78.153.201.155 so I
added "78.153.201.155     cdn.mailscanner.info" to my local hosts file.
Now running the update_bad_phishing_sites resolves but doesn't seem to
find the necessary update.
