According to my experiences, yes there are problems. I had this problem 
for one day on both of my servers running FreeBSD 4.7 STABLE and 4.8 
RC. One day both stopped. I didn't know why and I get lots of did not 
issue errors in my /var/log/maillog. I removed all dnsbl's from the mc 
file, recompiled and installed the file into a cf file and the problems 
were gone, but the spam was soon filling up my mailboxes. This actually 
led me to install and configure spamassassin which works very well 
indeed.
