With a few days more observation, it turns out that not only does the
fqrdns list not block any of my current incoming spam, but it DID block
at least one major source of legitimate incoming mail.  So it did more
harm than good.

I question whether blocking dynamic IP ranges is actually a valid and
useful antispam measure any more.
