I believe you need both, however skip_rbl_checks 0 enables all the RBL tests, not just SURBLs. http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.1.x/dist/rules/20_dnsbl_tests.cf If you were previously not using RBL tests and only want to use SURBLs, then you can give zero scores to the other RBL tests. That may save some processing time, if it lowers your scores somewhat. http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.1.x/dist/rules/50_scores.cf score RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET 0 1.332 0 1.558 score RCVD_IN_DSBL 0 1.801 0 2.600 score RCVD_IN_IADB_VOUCHED 0 -1.825 0 -2.200 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_CGI 0 # n=1 n=3 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_DUL 0 1.713 0 1.946 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_MULTI 0 # n=1 n=3 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_PROXY 0 0.327 0 0.721 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_RELAY 0 score RCVD_IN_NJABL_SPAM 0 1.905 0 2.775 score RCVD_IN_SBL 0 2.712 0 3.160 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_BLOCK 0 # n=1 n=3 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL 0 1.988 0 2.046 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_HTTP 0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_MISC 0 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_SMTP 0 0 0 0.201 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_SOCKS 0 1.823 0 2.159 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_WEB 0 1.236 0 1.456 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_ZOMBIE 0 0.240 0 0.258 score RCVD_IN_WHOIS_BOGONS 0 1.811 0 2.430 score RCVD_IN_WHOIS_INVALID 0 2.151 0 2.234 score RCVD_IN_XBL 0 3.114 0 3.897 Presumably you would zero these out in the local server config files, and not the installed configs.
