Which brings up a good point: does anyone have any current test data about the OB list that they can share, i.e., false positive rate especially compared to the other SURBL lists?
Here's the stats for a recent run of mine using the at-time-of-receipt network test results:

I don't know what the overlap and such is on these.
FWIW: It seems like everytime I report a SURBL FP it's because of OB. So I'm all for cleaning up the list/listing criteria.
