As it lists mailboxes, not domains, it doesn't scale to a DNSBL.  A better 
implementation may be as a sendmail text map file, called from custom header 
rulesets than to have it looked up under MD.  However, that would require a 
cron-job to check and update it on a regular basis (includign any needed 
reformatting), while MD could work with it from a remote host UDP or TCP 
connection.
