You might want to make one more (rather trivial) change (in
configure.default).

# Some others have followed the RBL lead and have produced other lists: DUL
# is a list of dial-up addresses, and there are also a number of other lists
# of various kinds at orbs.org.

Unfortunately, ORBS was recently (a month or so ago) shut down due to
lawsuits from a couple of networks they had blocked.
