FWIW, I've compiled a list I use. I run a few mail servers for clients 
on cable connections.
Email sent to the domains below needs to be routed through the cable 
ISP's SMTP server.
Whatever blacklist rcn.com or rr.com (I forget which) uses also includes 
DSL lines and T1s.
So, a client with a T1 for ten years is blocked with a mildly snotty 
message. No reply to any
contact attempts to resolve the matter, of course. Whenever I discover a 
new one, I add it
to all the clients' lists. (Yes, I could simply relay all their mail, 
but I know of one ISP which
apparently discards all undeliverable emails without any notice to the 
sender of the failure.
I prefer to be more in control.)

Here's my list from Postfix's transport table:
