// Package dnsbl implements DNS block lists (RFC 5782), for checking incoming messages from sources without reputation.
//
// A DNS block list contains IP addresses that should be blocked. The DNSBL is
// queried using DNS "A" lookups. The DNSBL starts at a "zone", e.g.
// "dnsbl.example". To look up whether an IP address is listed, a DNS name is
// composed: For 10.11.12.13, that name would be "13.12.11.10.dnsbl.example". If
// the lookup returns "record does not exist", the IP is not listed. If an IP
// address is returned, the IP is listed. If an IP is listed, an additional TXT
// lookup is done for more information about the block. IPv6 addresses are also
// looked up with an DNS "A" lookup of a name similar to an IPv4 address, but with
// 4-bit hexadecimal dot-separated characters, in reverse.
//
// The health of a DNSBL "zone" can be check through a lookup of 127.0.0.1
// (must not be present) and 127.0.0.2 (must be present).
