DNS entries for samba.org

[Andrew J Cole]

The DNS entries for samba.org have recently changed (on Mar 25?).

Currently a reverse lookup on the sender domain (sender is
samba at samba.org) for the digest now fails to find any MX or A records.

% dig any samba.org

; <<>> DiG 8.2 <<>> any samba.org 
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:

KONG.BSTC.NET is also timing out .. 

% dig @KONG.BSTC.NET any samba.org

; <<>> DiG 8.2 <<>> @KONG.BSTC.NET any samba.org 
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; res_nsend to server KONG.BSTC.NET  63.238.153.11: Connection timed out

We have been rejecting the incoming digests (as spam) for the
last couple of days - surely many people must be doing this?
