What I want to determine is whether Declude Junkmail is worth using without the mail-abuse.org subscriptions
it is, and so it IMGate, for the same reasons
, or whether those subscriptions provide the majority of the filtering power.
they don't, here's the rejects report of a user of IMGate who subscribes IMGate to to mail-abuse.org:

===========================
86947 TOTALIn general, using several free RBL servers makes a welcome but not dominant contribution that exceeds the rejects by mail-abuse.org.
