        The syntax may be wrong. Again check the Alerts tab when you try to reach the site.

          DNSBL Reject HTTPS,Apr 16 11:38:57,outlook.live.com

            If you put https://outlook.live.com/ in the Custom Whitelist, it's wont work. It has to be outlook.live.com, or .outlook.live.com click on the .

              I did put your suggested url in custom whitelist but problem persists. DNSBL Log error;
              DNSBL Reject HTTPS,Apr 16 14:20:31,outlook.live.com
              DNSBL Reject HTTPS,Apr 16 14:20:31,outlook.live.com

              Browser shows certificate error, CN_DNSBL.

              Any other idea?

                Why don't you use the Alerts tab to do your whitelisting ?

                  I don't see these log entries in Alert tab. I can see them only in DNSBL Log.

                    I would suggest giving this article a read as it explains alot about how to configure DNSBL in pfBlockerNG: https://linuxincluded.com/block-ads-malvertising-on-pfsense-using-pfblockerng-dnsbl/

                      @shahzy_ Did you inspect pfblockerng.log, do you see any outlook.live.com in there ?
                      Did you run a Force Reload DNSBL ?

                        This is how it is fixed;

                        1. I added outlook.live.com in custom white list
                        2. I did a force update.
                        3. I restarted dnsbl service.

                        The pain go away. I can open outlook and check my email.

                        out of curiosity, I tried to reproduce this problem by;

                        1. I removed outlook.live.com from custom white list.
                        2. I did a force update
                        3. I restarted dnsbl service.

                        I did not get my original issue. I can open outlook.

                        I don't know what exactly is going on but your help, helped me to fix this. Thanks.

                          @shahzy_ That's because you had added to the whitelist.

                            Though my issue is fixed but curiosity never stops;

                            pfblockerng log file after adding outlook.live.com

                            [ uBlockFiltersPlus ] Reload [ 04/16/20 14:34:07 ] . completed ..

                            Whitelist: outlook.live.com
                            I have removed package stat's for simplicity.

                            pfblockerng log file after removing outlook.live.com

                            Whitelist: localhost.localdomain

                            After removing outlook.live.com and force update, my localhost.localdomain get's white listed in this list. This could be reason of not reproducing the issue.

                            Is it ok to see localhost.localdomain white listed?
                            Hope i am not a trouble :)

                              I found the reason why i was not able to reproduce the issue.

                              You don't need to restart pfsense for unblocking site.

                              You need to restart pfsense if you want to remove sites from custom white list.

                              This concludes my fix and testing. Thanks everyone for your help.

                                What !?!

                                Did you read the Note: These entries are only Whitelisted when Feeds are downloaded or on a 'Force Reload'.

                                Force Update is not the same as Force Reload DNSBL

                                  I just did a test. You need to "Force Reload" and "Force Reload DNSBL" in case If you remove an entity from custom white list. The entity behavior will change to blocking. You don't need to restart pfsense.

                                  Thanks for clarification.
