Devin Carraway has written a plugin for the Perl-based MTA qpsmtpd
to compare domains from message body URIs to SURBL domain
lists.  Here's his announcement of what I believe is the first
MTA use of SURBL.  Congrats and thanks to Devin!

Subject: qpsmtpd plugin

Saw today's slashdot article on SURBL -- glad to see someone's taken up
the idea.  I had thought of something similar, but somehow hadn't
connected it with "oh yeah, they're already hostnames, make a DNSBL out
of it."

You commented that it'd be nice to see support for it in MTAs, so I
wrote a plugin for qpsmtpd to do it.  Qpsmtpd, if you haven't
encountered it, is a replacement smtpd for qmail and postfix, with a
primary emphasis on detecting and declining spam during the initial SMTP
transaction.
