* It is clear that the two main blacklists are Spamhaus and BRBL. The
Zen combinatoin of Spamhaus zones is extremely effective and generally
safe. BRBL has a high hit rate as well, with a moderate safety rating.
Thats moderate? That you loose 1 legitimate mail over ~ 3000 mails
if you start blocking with it ?
I think the FP rating should be much much lower and like BRBL they should
check and cleanout FP's before it will be taken anything close to serious.

HOSTKARMA_BL much better as URIBL

How do you check return values? There is a lot inside. If you 'just' use
the default response you get back any spam listed on a freemail platform
and so on. Is there no legitimate mail from those platforms? I tend to
say, yeah right. But for the fairly limited test set it could be the case.
You have to know whats inside to do proper suggestions. If it works for
you, sure, will it work for others. If you care about your inbox i would
not jump to these conslusions just now.
Just my 2 cents.
And yes, Spamcop is doing a bad job (As BL) nowdays, i would not even
consider rejecting on MTA with that one. Use it to score, but dont use it
to reject. That time is long gone. User reports do have disadvantages ;)
Bye,
Raymond.
