Best way to use blacklists?

Have you tried this setting in mailscanner.conf:

# If the message sender is on any of the Spam Lists, do you still want
# to do the SpamAssassin checks? Setting this to "no" will reduce the
load
# on your server, but will stop the High Scoring Spam Actions from ever
# happening.
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
Check SpamAssassin If On Spam List = yes

This might (!) also work for blacklist. I would have to look at the
sources first but try it.
