I'm adding SURBL support to the urlbody plugin of spampal. Spampal is a freeware windows local proxy anti-spam application, with a userbase of almost 100.000. (http://www.spampal.org/)
I use only multi. At the moment only JP, but this will become a configuration option. Probably also with a "two out of all" option .
Please consider using the sc.surbl.org data (bit 2 in multi) also. It's very effective and small.
- I've added a local skiplist with about top half of the public
"whitelist", no need to query those.
When you say half, that may be more than optimal (should be about 5000 records). SpamAssassin is using the top 125, which worked out to about the 50%th percentile of all whitelist hits when we first set this up. (Now that result is skewed *because* SpamAssassin isn't checking those 125 any more, but their snapshot of the 125 is still probably useful.
I'd say anything between 100 and 1000 would probably be a good compromise between list size and coverage.
