I take it back, cluecentral hasn't had a hit in over 30 days, probably because it went off line last November.

I really should pay more attention to these things, but I get so little spam anymore with sbl-xbl and greylisting that it hardly seems to matter.


Which points up an important fact: once you start using external resources for spam control, you need to pay attention to their status. In the past, some DNSBL's have shut down with a "list the world" tactic that is designed to slap inattentive users out of continuing to query dead lists. You don't want to be on the user end of such a tactic, as it means rejecting all mail until you notice it.
