Sounds fine to me....(since no one else is commenting :)
The whole idea of surbl relies on the fact that there is no legitimate way that a spam url would be found in a genuine message. This isn't too hard considering how obscure and obfuscated most spammer domain names are...they're not the kind of thing that you'd write by accident in casual conversation :)
Oh I wouldn't say that is 100% true!
The following are the rules I removed from BigEvil. They are "Shammers", people who send spam AND ham. So these were the domains I had to remove even though they had sent lots of spam. The one company they get as a customer to send ham forces your hand to remove them. SURBL will need to create a list like this sometime soon.
