Hi,

Is there something wrong with the SURBL-checker at http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi ?

I get no matches of any domains i'm testing. Even with spam-domains that hits the multi-list isn't listed as blocked.

I'm not getting matches either. Let's ask Dallas to please look into it for us.

Is this problem related to the "FP-rate" thread?

No.

BTW, there's no need to worry; the SURBL lists are working fine and lots of spams are getting blocked.

You can check listings by doing a DNS query:
