Yep, I've been using CBL for a few months now.  It is fairly acurate, but
not that high a scoring test compared to some other I use:

1910 CBL

as compared to some of the other higher scoring tests:

9902 REYNOLDS
7295 SPAMCOP
7254 MAILPOLICE-BULK
6440 EASYNET-DNSBL
5155 SPAMHAUS
4878 SPAMSITES
4692 BLARSBL

I use quite a few DNSBL and RHSBL tests, scoring most of them pretty low,
but looking to gain weight by finding consistency and matches in several
different databases, rather then scoring few test higher.  This help keep
the FPs lower because you don't rely on a single database test with a high
score that may inadvertantly flag a legit message that triggers a hold or
delete weight.  Using more tests with lower weights allow for a few of the
databases to flag a particular message but still not cause it to reach a
hold or delete weight, at least not without several confirming databases.
