When we first started, we tried to get the data out in our own way, but it turned out that the regular RBL way of doing things with DNS zone files was a lot more scalable. So we went with that. (Using RBLs is the method that you describe above.) Typically SURBLs are used on ISP mail servers with programs like SpamAssassin, exim, sendmail, etc. There's lots more info on our website http://www.surbl.org/ for anyone interested in learning more about SURBLs or finding some applications that use them. Cheers, Jeff Chan (Trying not to belch here… ;-)
