Some tests with other spam mails shows that it does not work for them either. I just found a mail scoring barely below the High Scoring limit which should have hit a lot of RBL-lists but did not mark any!

Ok stupid question.. but have you by any chance changed the default 
scores to zero for RCVD_IN_DSBL, RCVD_IN_SBL, RCVD_IN_XBL and others in 
your config (spam.assassin.prefs.conf or some local.cf)?
