Would there be any point ? Does sbl.spamhaus.org list hostnames ? (I didn't think so, but I could be wrong) I suspect that milter does a DNS lookup on the hostnames and checks the found ip address against the sbl, and SpamCopURI wouldn't do that...
As I understand it, sbl does have a minority of domain names that might be found in message bodies, but most of what it has is IP addresses, which you correctly note largely would not be meaningful for SpamCopURI.
If the milter does name resolution that's definitely not what we want, but perhaps it could be modified to not resolve names. If it checks names to names from messages to RBL, then it could work with SURBLs.
Our data in the current SURBLs is specifically meant for the task we have set for them, so this was sort of a side question in the hope that we may be closer to a milter for sendmail which could be used with SURBLs.
