Hi guys / Mortals

I was wondering if anyone knew of any good/goodish DNSBL database's.
I did some testing with a few databases and well theres a few I've noted 
not to use SORBS been one of them, although it did cut down on my spam 
intake it also cut down on my email in general, and well thats just not 
cool.
I'm Currently use  zen.spamhaus.org, list.dsbl.org and 
combined.njabl.org these three databases are cutting down on a large 
number of spam but still a large number of emails is sneaking though 
300-500 per day compared without a DNSBL were the amount is more 
600-900. This is just my personal mail server its just my little play 
server (VPS)
Oh and yes thats a lot of spam I have catch all turned on, yes I know 
turning that off would fix a lot of spam but this is just for fun.

Thanks
Bevin
