Checking is good, go for it.

Another would be list.dnswl.org -- it's a whitelist, and one which has
saved me from frustration many a time. Some spam comes in because of
it, but still good signal. They have docs on how their IPs are
constructed.

Would there be interest from others in my script and config which
manages caching whitelist lookups in sqlite for a month or so past last
time seen, so that most legitimate traffic never hits whitelists? I run
it nightly, so the first few queries for an IP rely upon the DNS cache.
Python3.2.

I find it useful but I know I'm weird. Perhaps something for the
examples collection?
