Thanks for this link! I have been using sbl.spamhaus.org and
bl.spamcop.net. Alll of the hosts that I have spot checked on this site
have been on both lists.

I remember stumbling accross this site once before. I remember because
the picture of him reminded me of a former landlord. Landlord was also
into many of the same interests as this guy.
One of the school districts I support at work ended up on his list and
someone they were trying to send mail to was using it. I told the
district to contact the mail admin at the other domain and advise them as
long as he was using block.blars.org, they would never get email from the
district. I never did hear back on the status of that incident.
To everyone else that wrote with suggestions: Thank you for the
suggestions. For now, I have implemented SpamCop and Spamhaus' SBL.
