That's two votes for a 127.0.0.2 (as 2.0.0.127.<queryroot>) testpoint,

suggested _not_ using "example.com" (eg: example.com.sc.surbl.org)
For my own curiousity, I'll ask why Justin said example.com was bad.
These lists are used to detect URIs appearing in the message
body. example.com is a domain reserved for examples and can appear in ham.
Exactly.
I feel so ... dumb ;-) 127.0.0.2 will have similar problems. The thing
to choose would preferably be something that's not resolveable, and is
unlikely to ever be used in a real link. SURBL has something like
"this-is-not-likely-to-ever-appear.<queryroot>". Perhaps the BCP should
simply give suggestions on how to invent a test string rather than
mandating a specific one. Or punt.
