Yes, as does list.dsbl.org (or was it dnsbl.njabl.org?)

I wouldn't like the above idea either. It would make things more annoying
to maintain. I was thinking of in the code checking for the existance of !
immediately before the = and then if the host *IS* on the list and the IP is
not on the given list, it's ok. Not exactly like an Exim list, but for me,
it would work.

I'd have to write that as:
    !dnslists = dnsbl.sorbs.net=127.0.0.8
    dnslists = dnsbl.sorbs.net


As phil already stated, dnslists isn't an exim style list.
