Well I've now made the change and implemented SURBL, and I'm in total agreement David, it's great!
Very easy to implement as well. I try not to do anything that's outside of the Debian packaging system as I'm still not up to speed with a lot of Linux things yet, but I found it extremely easy and painless to get the SpamCopURI plugin working.
Thanks again for the tip.
