When I have an email account with a compromised password that is
pumping out junk with auth SMTP the sending IP is virtually always in
XBL. When I have legitimate senders using auth SMTP they are
extremely rarely listed.

So, I feel that if an authenticated sender is listed in XBL I feel
there is a 98+ percent chance it is compromised and pumping out junk
mail. For the remaining 2 percent I would like to restrict too around
10 recipients an hour so its still usable but cannot send enough
volume to be of use to a junkmailer.
