I'm finding spamtrap RBLs quite problematic because they list the wrong 
culprits. What does the mail server sending the junk has to do with the 
original sender? Nothing other than it's possibly a client having an 
infected machine or being a spammer. This list tends to collect mail 
sevrer IPs from high volume ISPs and could even be used for DoSing them 
(just sent a mail to one of the spamtrap accounts over them).

DynaBlock doesn't exist anymore. We use SORBS as the first of three RBLs 
and the only FP I knowingly got from them was an entry from their spamtrap 
list (they got one as well). It listed one of several servers of a German 
high volume ISP, possibly once there was an email sent to the spamtrap 
account over it.
