Tell me, that you are not really blocking IPs because of some email domains behind are throwing automatically created reponses back? You are really comparing apple to pears. You should block email domains but not IPs.
Let's say you have a load balanced environment with let's say 100'000 domains and 1 mio email addresses, using a /24 for email services. The collateral damage you are taking in account if one single address is throwing back automated responses is immense. Not to mention if you are blocking one IP - you then have a lottery if email will get transmitted.
Sorry, but that gets me upset.
