With that being said, he was not incorrect in this instance.

The response received from Spamhaus indicates that you were blocked due 
to using a public DNS server.

describe RCVD_IN_ZEN_BLOCKED_OPENDNS  ADMINISTRATOR NOTICE: The query to 
zen.spamhaus.org was blocked due to usage of an open resolver. See 
https://www.spamhaus.org/returnc/pub/

You should double-check your nameserver setup and make sure it is doing 
what you think it is doing.  Also double-check that the system running 
SA is actually configured to use your local nameserver (in 
/etc/resolv.conf or similar) and check for a dns_server setting in the 
SA config files that might be pointing somewhere else.
