I guess it depends on your customer base and mail volume, but anyone running spam tests in an ISP environment would be foolish and running great risk of deleting legitimate messages by basing delete decisions on the results of any single RBL test criteria. And I feel that if you have a weight system available to you, why take that risk at all?
