Blocking a whole country is like throwing out the baby with the bath
water.  A more selective three defense method blocks 99.5% of the spam
from China, or any place:

1) matching forward/reverse DNS
2) dsl/adsl/dialup regex + dynablock.njabl.org
3) a few good dnsbls (spamhaus, dsbl, njabl)

Less filling.  Tastes great.
