Support Intelligence pubilshes the Day Old Bread RHSBL:

It is in alpha. I would be keen to hear how it does for you.
hmm- i might try that- thanks
Separately, I'm building some technology that acts essentially as a
next-generation DNSBL: when queried, in addition to returning a
response from a local lookup table, the server does some independent
research as well: it looks for the whois record, determines the
registrar, and and looks up the reputation of that registrar. All of
this, and more, contributes to the reputation score, and shows up in
the response. This work is occurring under the aegis of
Karmasphere.com; if you're interested, I invite you to sign up for
the karmasphere-users mailing list here: http://www.karmasphere.com/
devzone/mailinglists.html
i may do that as well.
Meng- strange that you in particular should respond- as i have noticed
that most of these domains have an spf record of +all, which is
considered a 'pass' by Mail::SPF::Query. I dont recall seeing +all in
the spec? i might be able to block them with that...
