for those that don't use SpamAssassin and would like to make SURBL checks on their mail, I've adapted Devin Carraway's plugin to qpsmtp, making a daemon that is independent, forking itself as needed. I believe it performs well, even on high traffic mail.
Its simple usage interface, that was made with amavisd antivirus code in mind, is possibly usable by other services. Whenever a mail comes, one should connect to it and order it to scan the dir or file that message is on.

I am also making a transparent SMTP proxy for using with Postfix in servers with low traffic and/or running a local RBL daemon (rbldnsd). It would prevent losing e-mail. Any potential false positive would be notified by the SMTP reject code after the end of the DATA command block. Do you think it could be useful?
You can get this plugin, that I called SURI, at http://i-admin.blogspot.com . I'd appreciate any comments very much. It's my first free software ever relased :-P
It's definitely interesting to see new implementations of SURBL checking, and it could perhaps be useful to other applications even if it's perhaps not a perfect fit for amavisd.
Do you mind if I link to it and also announce it? Perhaps it can be useful to other folks.
