I am using both spamhaus and abusix and must say I am quite happy with the
results I am getting. Yet every user is different so YMMV.

spamhaus and abusix require registration and they are free to some extent ie.
depends on the traffic generated to these services.

but which lists? using spamhaus PBL is not viable because it lists dynamic IP address which can be commonly used by clients.

spamrats also have such a service which doesn't require registration AFAIK

I have bad historic experience with spamrats and fwom wht I remember I'm not the only one.

for submission I have this in the smtpd_client_restrictions settings of 
master.cf

reject_rbl_client auth.spamrats.com=127.0.0.39
