The main benefit of SpamDyke, at least for me, is blocking stuff at the SMTP
level... Do your RBL lookups in SpamDyke. I'd also suggest filtering out
servers that don't have rDNS or MX records, and also ones that have ip
addresses in the rDNS.
Just those three will filter a TON of spam at the SMTP level, and should
result in zero false positives, unless someone has a very badly configured
mail server, in which case, you probably don't want to get mail from them
anyway...
The greylisting feature is always a give/take situation, but it's easy to
turn on/off, and can be done by domain. It does help filter more spam, but
I'm not sure how much more.
