Yes, but note that SpamHaus' XBL database is a duplicate of CBL's (from the
XBL site at http://www.spamhaus.org/XBL/):
==========
Incorporates CBL data

The XBL wholly incorporates the highly-trusted CBL (Composite Block List)
from cbl.abuseat.org, therefore mail servers already using cbl.abuseat.org
should NOT also use xbl.spamhaus.org or you will be making 'double' queries
to basically the same data source and only one DNSBL will appear to work,
the other will appear to not catch anything.
