Will Spamassassin be adding support for this new DBL

127.0.1.3 spammed redirector domain

OK, so this is meant to be used as a URIBL. I don't see this as anything
special because there is no way to query the pathname portion of a URI
which would allow more fine-grained detection of spammy URI's even on a
non-evil shortening service.
it's nothing more than what it say it is.
Is this new DBL return code meant to be a lower score than ordinary
URIBL's that often choose to list evil shortener domains?
I'd say, depends on your traffic.
My point is this is no different than an ordinary URIBL listing.
nope.. just a separate return code for a small data subset.
