I'd agree with Paul, what's the difference between doing the lookup of the domain listed in a mailto: link and a http: link -- both of which are often found in someone's signature?
Eliminating the mailto: domain lookup could lead to spam such as "email us at [EMAIL PROTECTED] for all the junk you don't really want".
However, it's an impedance mismatch between what's going into the backends (the SBL and SURBL uribls) and what we're matching on the other end.
At least for SBL, it's definitely problematic, since a SBL escalation (of mail relays) will blocklist mail that *mentions* that domain!
True, you can't win either way. Any domains mentioned (the same ones found in the mentioned email addresses) will also trigger a hit. Granted domains are mentioned less often than email addresses.
I'd be interested in this week's mass check results, compared to last week's now that mailto: links aren't included in the lookup.
