safe.dnsbl.sorbs.net includes new.spam.dnsbl.sorbs.net which is not very
safe at all. bl.spamcop.net isn't all that safe either. Both will
routinely hit on the free email providers and major ISPs outgoing MTAs.
This is because both have automatic systems generating them.

Its fairly hard for any sizable ISP or mail provider to not constantly
be going on and off new.spam and spamcop lists given harvested/weak
passwords and the newer bots that will use the MTA configured in the
default mail client of the zombied system including being able to do
SMTP-AUTH.

"safe" sorbs would be something along the lines of:
dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net + relays.dnsbl.sorbs.net + zombie.dnsbl.sorbs.net
