I appreciate that it's hard to make up for the failings of other peoples
email/internet infrastructure, but I'm looking for options/suggestions
on how to deal with that old problem of "Blocking unwanted mail when the
occasional wanted mail has all the characteristics of unwanted mail".

We use RBL's and basic checks such as rejecting mail with no rdns at
all, and it stops thousands of spam, but of course as a business, in an
ideal world I want to accept all legitimate mail regardless of
characteristics.

Sure I can manually create whitelists but that requires me to know there
was a problem with a certain domain/host/address.

I think I'm asking the impossible, but I'm curious how other people go
about handling this problem both technically and politically?

Cheers,
Paul
