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.

Protect your domain from use by spammers. Set up an SPF record, read more about it here http://spf.pobox.com/.

We're not going to blacklist zdnet.
It's not zdnet, it's chkpt.zdnet.com.
Does chkpt.zdnet.com show up in ham?

Are we still 100% opposed to trying to find a way to include
sub-domains in
surbls?
Patrik
It's possible to list subdomains, but this one chkpt.zdnet.com would still probably not be appropriate since it probably has legitimate uses. Also subdomains may not be checked by SURBL applications.
