Jeff,
So it seems that there is an obvious loophole in SURBL. As long as the spammer uses a legitimate business running a redirector you will never black list them (perhaps the spammer could even set up their own legitimate redirector). This open redirector discussion for ZDNET has been open for several weeks now, they have had more than ample warning.

No, it's not a loophole. Programs like SpamAssassin and SpamCopURI correctly parse some redirection sites like g.msn.com and check the redirected-to site.
