SORBS-SPAM had a report earlier this week of blocking at least one large ISP (Cox), so don't rely on it too heavily.

SORBS-BADCONF seems to be something that could produce a high degree of false positives, though I am just guessing from the methodology (MX and A records that point to bad address space).
Besides the above mentioned tests, the others are a DUL list and a bunch of different open relay lists. I am guessing that their DUL list replicates much of what others offer so watch out for double-scoring. I don't know what sort of open relays might be more indicative than others of spam, but again, watch out for inadvertent double-scoring with other tests that you run. Also, not all Osriusoft tests are replicated by SORBS.

Which of the SORBS tests are you using?
There seems to be about 10 of them.

SORBS and FIVETEN seem to be the most popular replacements. FIVETEN is overzealous though, so score low.

Since Osirusoft has gone away I am looking at replacing it with other Blacklists. Here are some I am considering -
BLARS Reynolds SORBS
Anyone else using these and what is your opinion on these?
Also since each of these have multiple lists, which do you use?
Thanks for the help.
