Should I send this to spamassasin list?
Questionable.
That's because it only checks the registered domain and not its subdomains?
Yes. The SA 3.0 URIDNSBL plugin trims down to the actual domain for the query.
That's to avoid something like:
foo.bar.baz.test.something.else.spam.com
where if it wasn't just domain only, there'd be queries for:
foo.bar.baz.test.something.else.spam.com bar.baz.test.something.else.spam.com baz.test.something.else.spam.com test.something.else.spam.com something.else.spam.com else.spam.com spam.com
which is just bad for lots of reasons.
And how does the plugin (or spamcopuri) knows what to look up?
Does it use only the 2ndLD for gTLDs?
How does it work with ccTLDs? There are countries that register the 2ndLD and others that register the 3rdLD, if it receives: "spammer.com.es" will it query for com.es or spammer.com.es? and what if it gets "spammer.com.ar"?
FTR, Spain (.es) register the 2ndLD (com.es) and Argentina (.ar) register the 3rdLD (spammer.com.ar)... and there are countries that do both.
How does the plugin work in these cases?
