One reason I lurk on some of these very good groups is after I post
something to a usnet group or mailing list, my spam exponent increments
by "i".

Running my own SMTP mail server seems to be the only solution.
I tried spamcop and such, but it was like spitting into the wind.

I will look at Spambouncer (or have my students do it) when we setup our
own little domain for real.

But, I do read this group, and I use some of this material in my classes
(I teach bioinformatics).

There's a lot more that spambouncer provides regarding MAPS support and
checking for IPs with Open Relays. I haven't tried any of that, yet.
Maybe that goes part-way to answer what you want too.
