You can probably safetly block all of *.dialsprint.net AFAIK, the
entire domain is modem pools, as even mail addressed to *@dialsprint.net
goes to sprintlink.net mail servers.

Here are some more:

ANS: *.dial.ans.net
UUNet: *.ms.uu.net, *.da.uu.net
Compuserve: *.hil.compuserve.com
AT&T: *.dial-access.att.net
