Ok, I've set me a note to stop the automatic download before 2005-02-07. The SURBL text filter was very effective. Here some numbers from one day on my system: Total processed messages: 13645 Identified as legit: 3789 (~28%) Identified as spam: 9856 (~72%) Spam catched by SURBL: 4567 (~46% of spam) False positives by SURBL: 1 (~0%) On the other side (at least for my system) I can say also that only 6 from the 4567 spam messages catched by SURBL has had a low final weight between 100 and 170% of our hold weight. This 6 spam messages would be slipped trough our filter without SURBL. The resting 4561 messages having a final weight above 170% of our hold weight was also catched by several other tests. Without SURBLs weight additional 29 messages would have a final weight in our 100-170% review range. So pretty effective but not really really vital. Maybe I'll give a look to invURIBL. The price seems to be very honest and maybe we can expect even more bether results as we can access the centralized database in realtime (and spammers haven't anymore a complete list of what SURBL blacklist for?)
