ORDB.org is shutting down
See: http://www.ordb.org/news/?id=38
Does SA uses it somewhere somehow by default?

Yes and no. XBL has some delay until updates are propagated from CBL, so
querying XBL first and then CBL gives you two advantages:
* You profit from the high reliability and low response times of
Spamhaus' DNS setup
* After SBL-XBL filtered out the bulk, CBL can kick in to "catch the
rest", ie those not yet propagated from CBL to XBL.
I use such a setup on my production system where we have an SBL+XBL feed
- -- this incurs another delay (CBL -> XBL -> local rsync), so adding the
CBL improves the detection rate slightly.

I thought sbl-xbl used cbl as well? Is using them twice a waste of

Thanks Ian, I didn't know rbl-plus.mail-abuse.ja.net. I therefore added
rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org as I'm outside of Janet.
This gives me for my postfix based installlation :
reject_rbl_client sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org,
reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org,
reject_rbl_client rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org,
reject_rbl_client cbl.abuseat.org,
reject_rbl_client dnsbl.sorbs.net
Thanks a lot.

We've been using this list of RBLs:
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org
list.dsbl.org
rbl-plus.mail-abuse.ja.net
relays.ordb.org
In that order, and get just a few emails a day that get as far as the last
check, with tens of thousands rejected by the earlier tests.

I was using it but with postfix checking sender restrictions.
I think it is not used in SA but by mail servers.
Anyone got a replacement ?

It may have in the past, but I don't see any reference other than a few
dangling translated "description" entries in my 2.64 installs.

Doing a grep through the rules, I don't see it anywhere. MailScanner
will use it by default. I have posted the news over on their list. Kind
of short notice.
