It is not a hack.
From /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/RELEASE_NOTES:
CONFIG: new FEATURE(rbl) Turns on rejection of hosts found in
the
Realtime Blackhole List. You can specify the RBL name
server to contact by specifying it as an optional
argument.
The default is rbl.maps.vix.com. For details, see
http://maps.vix.com/rbl/.
From /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README:
rbl This feature is deprecated! Please use dnsbl instead.
Turns on rejection of hosts found in the Realtime
Blackhole
List. If an argument is provided it is used as the
domain
in which blocked hosts are listed; otherwise, the main
RBL domain rbl.maps.vix.com is used. For details, see
http://maps.vix.com/rbl/.
dnsbl Turns on rejection of hosts found in an DNS based
rejection
list. If an argument is provided it is used as the
domain
in which blocked hosts are listed; otherwise it defaults
to
rbl.maps.vix.com. An explanation for an DNS based
rejection
list can be found http://maps.vix.com/rbl/. A second
argument
can be used to change the default error message of
Mail from $&{client_addr} refused by blackhole site
SERVER
where SERVER is replaced by the first argument. This
feature
can be included several times to query different DNS
based
rejection lists.
I use both rbl and rss via the following:
FEATURE(dnsbl,`rbl.maps.vix.com',` Mail from $&{client_addr} rejected;
see http://mail-abuse.org/cgi-bin/lookup?$&{client_addr}')dnl
FEATURE(dnsbl, `relays.mail-abuse.org', `Open spam relay - see
http://www.mail-abuse.org/rss')dnl
