Definitely confusing so ignore any previous responses I sent :-) Speaking for the Apache SpamAssassin project, I want to make sure this is compliant with our free for some RBL inclusion policy [1] at SpamAssassin but I think the 3 follow-up emails clarified it DOES work out of the box for low volume without a key.
I would also suggest you look at the URIBL_BLOCKED rule and returning a quad that allows an administrator to know why they are blocked. We can add a rule for that. Can you make a suggested rule and email to the SA Dev list or put in a bugzilla request, Please?
