I have no compunction about using the lists _I_ use for hard rejects. Thomas 
has a perfectly reasonable (to my eyes and I use it) workaround, and his 
choice to not use it is his problem.

Anything less than a hard reject means that spam is delivered and someone some 
time has to sort out the mess.

I have not yet implemented grey-listing, but that seems to me a useful 
supplement to blacklisting, whitelisting and filtering. Not an alternative to 
any of them.
