There were a bunch of relay attempts and AUTH LOGIN attempts before various
rules here began to compete to see how long the IP would remain in the "no
connections" bin.

FWIW, I'm seeing a lot from that /24 that looks like what I understand 
to be a new version of Cutwail, which has stopped sending "EHLO ylmf-pc" 
before the greeting banner and is now using randomly variable names 
([[:alnum:]]{6,10}) but remains eminently droppable quite early.


But where I can, I've been dropping all packets from the /22 for months. 
No collateral damage reported.

HostGlobalPlus - I've blocked the whole 109.237.96.0/21 at the IP level and even as a "Received:" header matching rule, 
nothing good ever came from there.
