      While Paul's BGP feed is excellent for blocking spam, we can
      not use it because our customers demand being able to get to
      the "entire Internet".  Instead, we use filters to block mail
      coming to dial-up customers, and we provide information and
      tools to help our network customers kill spam on their own
      mail servers.  We are working hard to make the Internet a
      *much* smaller place for spammers ...

For what it is worth, you can also use the RBL via DNS, and affect email
only.  No license is currently required for this, and can be installed
in sendmail (and most other mail packages) in seconds.
