Teamspeak server contacting external host every 5 minutes


I have just installed a TS2 server on my Ubuntu host. On it I use a DNS cache, in the log files I see the following entries:

Quote:
Jan 2 13:59:09 dnsmasq[15623]: query[A] webpost.teamspeak.org from 127.0.0.1
Jan 2 13:59:09 dnsmasq[15623]: cached webpost.teamspeak.org is 62.146.63.82
Jan 2 14:04:10 dnsmasq[15623]: query[A] webpost.teamspeak.org from 127.0.0.1
Jan 2 14:04:10 dnsmasq[15623]: cached webpost.teamspeak.org is 62.146.63.82
Jan 2 14:09:10 dnsmasq[15623]: query[A] webpost.teamspeak.org from 127.0.0.1
Jan 2 14:09:10 dnsmasq[15623]: cached webpost.teamspeak.org is 62.146.63.82
Anyone know why TS would be "phoning home" every 5 minutes? I can easily reconfigure the DNS server so that webpost.teamspeak.org would point to a bogus IP but that is a work around the spying of TS.

Sounds like the webpost module/plugin?
