Of course, using MAPS was my primary motivation for doing IMGate two years

I run these RBL's in my IMGate, others use a different list:

maps_rbl_domains = relays.ordb.org,
                    inputs.orbz.org,
                    bl.spamcop.net,
                    dialups.relays.osirusoft.com,
                    spews.relays.osirusoft.com
