Just curious as to what average percent of spam people see SURBL hitting. In
a non scientific manor, I average about 85% or greater hitting SURBL for all
spam that doesn't get rejected by my MTA. I have a feeling if I clean up my
results a bit, that number would be even higher.

I watched very closely and finally set my SURBL scores to 5.0 each. I tag at 5.0, so if I hit any SURBL, it's spam. So I guess my average would be 100% ?

The question would be what percentage of your spam does SURBL hit, as opposed to what percentage of your SURBL hits are spam.

Ahh yes, forgive my enthusiasim I should have read closer ;^) Well I run spamd under daemontools so all my logs are in multilog format. I don't have anything to analyze those logs. But a quick cat and grep shows,


Of 284673 messages processed, 217538 were spam, 175941 hit at least one SURBL rule. So give me 80%. Best single anti-spam tool I've seen yet.
