Untrue. AB and SC use a common data source, spamcop reports. However, each has it's own processing/listing criteria and each is separately maintained. And, realistically, since WS and uribl accept direct reports from more-or-less anyone, their data sources could be redundant with any other URIBLs depending on what the It's really straight forward for an end-user to report the email to spamcop, then report the spamverized URI to WS and URIBL_BLACK via web forms. Pickup on surbl's SC list appears to involve multiple reports to spamcop, but there's still potential for common inputs. Let's see a show of hands.. How many people here have ever filed a spam report with multiple lists, including doing spamcop + either WS or URIBL. (raises own hand)
