If you're using them as your primary spam filter provider, you should
have information somewhere on which IP block(s) your mail will go
through.  If your mail MUST pass through those systems before it hits
your own inbound servers, you probably have those IPs noted for a
firewall or MTA ACL already so "The Internet" can't bypass your filter
provider.

You don't have to add each individual IP;  you can add netblocks like this:

trusted_networks        192.168.10.0/24

We've got a /22 for our inherited filter provider listed.

If you don't have that info, and their support refuses to tell you,
tailing your inbound logs for a while should give you a pretty good idea
what segments of their system your mail flows through...  but if their
support refuses to tell you, I'd be looking at switching providers;
knowing where your mail will legitimately go through your filter
provider's systems is important.
