That looks ok.
If you use the other surbl lists there would also be queries for them.
(pjcinfo.com.be.surbl.org, pjcinfo.com.ws.surbl.org)

I still find it surprising that none of your spam is getting flagged
for being in sc.surbl.org / ws.surbl.org / be.surbl.org. In my case
it is among the top indicators of spam.

The test you did above used a message that does not
contain domains listed in sc.surbl.org
Just to be sure, you might want to try it using one that
is in sc.surbl.org. You could insert the following
into the test message (with MUNGED removed)
and check to see if you get a positive result this time.
