In general, it is best to use a more professional list like Spamhaus or 
Spamcop or CBL.  You won't find any of the top 100 ISPs in the world using 
SORBS for good reason.  In general it is used by smaller hosters and ISPs 
who are trying to do the right thing but don't realize how poorly run 
SORBS is.
