Given the probable need to improve whitelisting, I've added a log of domains that would go onto sc.surbl.org but are then prevented from getting onto the list by the whitelist(s):
I should have added that it's also possible and perhaps likely for the same whitelisted domain to appear more than once in the log since the data is currently fairly short-lived given the 4 day expiration. The new engine will probably have a base 10 day expiration and have some other longer memories.
Multiple whitelist hits are essentially a non-problem because it means those domains are (being mis-reported but) not getting onto the list.
Multiple blacklist appearances by the same domain are suboptimal however, since it means probable spam domains could get missed until the reporting threshold to trigger list inclusion is reached again. That will be addressed....
