Based on this problem, completewhois has stopped listing 206.46.0.0/16 as 
a bogon (and actively having it blocked through dns for those using
bogons.dnsiplists.completewhois.com for active blocking in email), this
exception will last 48 hours. If you're using bogon lists in firewall 
with daily downloads of bogon ip block list, please make immediate 
download of currently available list or manually remove 206.46.0.0/16 
from list of bogons and reinitialize your firewall.
