Of course. I'm an idiot. I switched to OpenDNS a couple of weeks back.
Time to return from whence I came.  Thank you,

Donald,

We handle DNSBLs but not URIBLs, at the moment. Passing along to Noah to see what he can do. Sorry you had this happen to your SpamAssassin scoring. (Time to check mine... :-) )

You can resolve this behavior by turning off typo correction in your preferences page and it'll work again with us returning NXDOMAIN (RCODE=3) instead of doing the typo correction service. Hopefully we can get more granular with that in the future.

If you are on a dynamic IP, well, just sit tight for a couple more weeks or email me to start beta testing some code this week to handle dynamic IPs (and that offer is for anyone).

Thanks,
David Ulevitch (from OpenDNS)

I'm getting matches whenever I have an embedded URL
on URIBL_AB_SURBL and URIBL_PH_SURBL -
unless the URL is actually in URIBL_SBL, in which case the
logic for all the flavors of URIBL_XX_SURBL seems
to work correctly.  I have verified the
absence of the incorrectly matching URLs from SURBL
with lookups in http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi

This is SpamAssassin 3.1.5, all was fine in 3.1.2.

For now I have set both those tests to 0.00.

Yes, OpenDNS definitely caused problems for me also:

Sep  1 21:51:25 localhost spamd[10939]: uridnsbl: bogus rr for
domain=otwaloow.com, rule=URIBL_XS_SURBL, id=8880
rr=otwaloow.com.xs.surbl.org. 1 IN A 208.67.219.40
at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/ URIDNSBL.pm line
626.

Theo pointed out the errors of my ways:

The error is saying that it's looking for a 127/8 result, but it gets
208.67.219.40 (which resolves to a *.opendns.com name btw). So I would
say that yes, the problems are related to changing your nameservers.
