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.
But for research giggles, the SURBL lookup page on the SARE website DOES do this ;) It helps make it somewhat user friendly as well. But like Theo said, doing this in SA would be bad.

Chris,
Could you get Dallas to allow "http://" in there as well and munge that out of the query? It would make it easier to do lookups... when in a hurry:
--------------- You must wait 30 seconds between queries/submissions. We are ninjas, not track-n-field stars!
Super secret ninja IP address found... you may proceed [by dallase for chris] :) --------------
...... being lazy........
