RBL check timeout

Hello. Since a few weeks ago, the automatic RBL check (once at hour in our server), outputs always this at email:

Checked 31.2xx.xxx.xxx (PUBLIC) on Sat May 19 17:00:01 2018
short.rbl.jp
TIMEOUT
virus.rbl.jp
TIMEOUT
OK

These 2 lists short.rbl.jp and virus.rbl.jp always output TIMEOUT. It's a common problem for all Configserver users?. Can I resolve this?. If not, can I disable these 2 list to check?. Thanks.

Kind regards.

Where do you see the config for these.
I don't see these in my config.

I get server timeout when trying to navigate to www.rbl.jp.

We configured it at Home »Plugins »ConfigServer Security & Firewall - Check for IPs in RBL. At bottom of page you can schedule an automatic email hourly, daily, weekly or monthly.

Kind regards.

Under the "Edit RBL Options" you can disable them by adding these lines:

disablerbl:virus.rbl.jp
disablerbl:short.rbl.jp

Can't see why it matters much though.

Now I understand.

I have this configured on my server, but don't see the errors you mention in any logs.
However, if I try to connect to either of those servers from my local PC, they timeout.
