All this does - spam from hardcore spammers / spam support sites / known open relays will get blocked. So far, spammers have not hit the list. The RBL blocks such sites from 40% of the net (using BGP feed mostly, or other means too) The only people who have spammed the list so far are clueless idiots who don't know what is the difference between on topic and off topic. The RBL won't protect against these - just a wideawake sysadmin with a ready mallet, willing to hammer the spammer out of the list.
