We use Declude standard weights and add 15 for ones that fail SortMonster tests. We hold on weights over 30 and I don't think we've caught legitimate mail from these sources for sometime. Our only real fine tuning was to negative weight some email domains (below). We don't use any kill lists at all.

What is everyone doing about Hotmail, Yahoo, Juno and other web-based mail systems? It's really a catch-22. Hotmail is so frequently listed on RBL's and is a large source of spam but it's also a large source of legitimate email. They all seem to fail postmaster and abuse so they're already at 6-8 points on most peoples Junkmail. You can't whitelist them, and the RBL's usually send them over the edge. I use Sniffer so I've thought about adding a rule for hotmail, yahoo, etc to subtract the sum of postmaster and abuse and let message sniffer do some magic on these sites.
