I would leave this one at it's original score, since this one is an
automated BL and adds hosts that are currently spamming and removes
them in a timely manner when they stop (well under a week in the vast
majority of cases).  I think SBL means "Spamcop BL" in this case.

I would also *strongly* recommend not sending tagged mail to
/dev/null, but rather a dropbox so you can check it and run nonspam
through spamassassin -k so the Bayesian filter can get it right next
time.

Get your netblock delegated to you, then, and resolve it on your own.
