IMHO, a big part part of this task can be done automatically with PTR
name check against RFCI. I.e., in Postfix:

reject_rhsbl_client rbl_domain=d.d.d.d
   Reject the request when the client hostname is listed with the A
   record "d.d.d.d" under rbl_domain (Postfix version 2.1 and later
   only).   If  no "=d.d.d.d" is specified, reject the request when
   the  client  hostname  is  listed  with  any  A   record   under
   rbl_domain.  See  the  reject_rbl_client  description  above for
   additional RBL related configuration parameters.   This  feature
   is available in Postfix 2.0 and later.

Naturally, mail from anonymous hosts should not be accepted at all,
without any blacklists.
