Based on everyone's feed back, i put Spamhaus as my first sendmail dnsbl.  
It blocked 27,283 connections since 10:33am today. Sweet.  No complaints
yet.  Do these rejects show up in the mailstats command?

I am graphing with rrdtool the esmtp msgsrej data, but i'm guessing the 
dnsbl is showing up under C (TCP connections) row msgsrej.  What's the 
difference between the esmtp msgsrej and the tcp msgsrej?
