I suppose that's possible, though I'm sure any errors would also be corrected quickly. I can't say for sure since I don't use them myself. On the other hand, the folks who develop those rules do presumably use them themselves first and should be able to prevent bugs. One nice thing about SURBLs is that they're just plain domain names. The programs and rules to use them are small and invariant. It's possible for a good domain to get added wrongly to SURBLs, but we try to keep them out, and the worst that would happen is that some messages could get tagged falsely. So the scope of potential problems is arguably smaller with SURBLs. Jeff C.
