It can't hurt to add the rule. Then people using RBL checks in exim can turn off the rbl checks in SA and automatically get the benefit of the rule w/out having to compose their own rule. I guess the only possible problem is where people don't turn off SA RBL checking and so messages get a double score because they hit the Exim header rule, and then also fail the RBL tests.
