After filtering with Zen, there is not much additional value you get from
more IP RBLs (without signficant FP risk). For example, list.dsbl.org is
quite safe, but only adds ~1-2% after Zen.

Some people report good results with bl.spamcop.net, which reputedly has
become safer to use for rejects (not just scoring), but it not really
intended for this use last I checked.

Beyond Zen, your efforts are probably best directed at message content
filtering say SpamAssassin with SURBL lookups to filter spam URLs, ...
