I just did a little experiment. I placed an entry for the ip address of one
of my web servers in /etc/hosts (or rather the Windows equivalent of it on
my PC) with host name www_host.exam_ple.com. I emailed myself a message
containing the text http://www_host.exam_ple.com

When I looked at the message in Thunderbird the URL was a hot link. Clicking
on it opened my browser looking at the site at that ip address.

Even if there are no host names in the SURBL right now with "_" in them, if
SpamAssassin skips over those, just like Justin said spammers will start
using them.
