That's not how spam filters work.  They do filtering based on the IP
address sending the spam and maybe the rDNS.  It makes no difference
whatsoever if there is some other random A record pointing at the
spamming host.  You can't even tell.

The half a brain generally requires forward and reverse DNS to match
before using them.  If you know a way to do fast flux rDNS on botnets,
I know a lot of people who'd like to talk to you.
