My inclination would be to decree that DNSBL.TEST is the test name for
domain name BLs. No matter what string we use, there will always be
the possibility of a false alarm if it's used by scanners that recognize
it without the http:// punctuation. There's no way around that, so I
wouldn't worry about it.
I suggested test instead of dnsbl.test as it's less likely to be
parsed as a URL. It's better to avoid the underscore as well as it
can always be registered as a service name in future. Nowadays, a
scanner doesn't only identify parts with a http:// as it's common to
see links such as www.example.com or www.example which rely on MUA
and browser behavior to get to the site with a click.
