Osirusoft has been under a DOS attack for quite some time now. AIUI, Joe
has now set the zones to return 127.0.0.2 for all lookups, in an effort
to discourage people from using the zones.

*Any* lookup for *.osirusoft.com will either return 127.0.0.2 or
timeout, depending on whether you hit the primary name server or one of
the secondaries.

If your mail is getting blocked because of this, I'd politely suggest to
the admin. of the appropriate server that they stop using Osirusoft's
zones as RBL checks.
