It hits significantly more spam than zen.spamhaus.org

On my primary mx, today I had 94 mails that hit a zen list but not brbl,
591 that hit a zen list and brbl, and 8042 that hit brbl but not zen.

I am checking -lastexternal addresses only.

Looking through the 2400 or so domains that were marked as spam, I
didn't see any obvious false positives.  Looking through the 631 domains
that did not have enough points to be classed as spam, I didn't see more
than one or two that shouldn't have been blocked.  granted, i did not
look through the emails themselves, just the domain name.

I'm currently scoring it 1.0, and might raise it up to 2.0 in a couple
of days if nobody starts squawking....
