Corporate safe: 
cbl.abuseat.org
sbl.spamhaus.org

Combined list:
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org

A slightly non corporate safe list:
dnsbl.sorbs.net

A very useful one, if you are willing to live with punishing ISPs:
l1.spews.dnsbl.sorbs.net. Again, possible false positives.

Spamcop has a few tendencies to get a few more false positives than I
like.

frequently sending servers before checking.

Its there now as well. Define legitimate mail please? As a server
administrator, I would define legitimate mail as coming from a properly
configured and administered mail server. An open relay is not.
