Vishnu.netfilter.org is not listed in any public block lists TTBOMK.

I got one and looked at the headers. I thought perhaps their braindead 
Microsoft software was reading the Received: lines and finding 
something. If so I don't know what it is.

More likely, it simply has a faulty test for relays.ordb.org. In Unix 
terms, something like /bin/true is checking. It always returns a 
positive result.

$ host 62.96.59.178
178.59.96.62.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer 
h-62.96.59.178.host.de.colt.net.
$ host h-62.96.59.178.host.de.colt.net.
Host h-62.96.59.178.host.de.colt.net not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

They don't even have proper rDNS set up. Not surprising. This one would 
be a good candidate for spam blacklisting, and in due time it will be 
listed in the more aggressive RBL's.
