Isn't 192.168.* a class "B" that's not even routed over the net so you shouldn't have to worry about blocking it? Same goes for 10.* (and 172.16.* if memory serves me correctly). It may be that some ISPs use non-routed IPs for services for their clients before their packets get out on the net so be careful what you block. I know that from my cable connection from home my packets get handed off through a bunch of 10.* routers before they actually get out on the net.
On the topic of spam I think I am going to block any mail coming from a .ru domain. I have yet to see anything legitimate and the blackhole lists are filled with .ru entries. Just my two cents.
