I leave Spam Domain List set to blank.
In Spam List, I use MAPS-RBL+ (we have a subscription to it), ORDB-RBL and
SBL+XBL.

None needed.

>spam.lists.conf

ORDB-RBL                        relays.ordb.org.
SBL+XBL                         sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org.

The lists used by other people will of course vary from what I use myself.

Only use MCP if you need to. It is quite a performance hit due to a bug in
SpamAssassin that I haven't been able to find yet. Read the docs and
compare with the spam settings, so that you understand the effect of each
of the MCP settings.
