Time to filter unallocated blocks. On Wed, 6 Mar 2002, John Murphy wrote:
This block and the 216.119.224.0/21 are assigned to a company recently acquired by NuVox Communications. When our M&A Team queried them about these ARIN "No Match" blocks, we were told it was a 'technical issue' with ARIN and it's being worked. We are working staff from the acquired company and ARIN to resolve these issues. In the mean time, if you have any spam complaints regarding these netblocks please send them to postmaster@nuvox.net.

Uhhh, from IANA:
216/8 ARIN - North America Apr 98
From ARIN:
whois -h whois.arin.net 216.119.248.0 No match for "216.119.248.0".
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% NO MATCH TIP %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % % % ALL OF THE POINT OF CONTACT HANDLES IN THE ARIN % % WHOIS END WITH "-ARIN", IF YOU ARE QUERYING A POINT % % OF CONTACT HANDLE PLEASE ADD -ARIN TO YOUR QUERY. % % % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The ARIN Registration Services Host contains ONLY Internet Network Information: Networks, ASN's, and related POC's. Please use the whois server at rs.internic.net for DOMAIN related Information and whois.nic.mil for NIPRNET Information.
So, there's a disjointment somewhere. RADB is not an registrar, just a way to do route filtering.

(Apparently this network was sending spam.)
