I don't have this problem anymore. And if there are false positives and they 
really matter, well, the lists are archived, there's no problem (in 99% 
email that matters starts a thread, so I'll at least see some of the 
replies.)

Yes, it's annoying to be force-fed the spam. Yes, I use quite aggressive 
filtering for my own mail (including blocklists, though cn-kr.blackholes.us 
has been dropped after I started using postgrey as it wasn't blocking 
anything anymore), and yes, I think measures like greylisting used on 
Debian machines could improve the situation, but I think by now all the 
possible options have been discussed to death at least 3 times already.
