I see the reasoning behind what you are saying, but nobody is forcing anyone 
to use any RBL. If a RBL is too draconian for you, don't use it. For one that 
errs more on the side of caution.

RBLs DO help. Period. I have mail logs that prove it. Instead of 50%+ of my 
email being spam, it is down to about 5%. That is clearly a very positive 
result. If you have to download the email to spam check it, then you have 
already taken a bandwidth hit for the whole lot, so milters are a _second_ 
line of defense.

But again, we are getting off topic.
