It might be useful, but we'd have to test it to know.
I just wanted to point out we have the infrastructure for testing this,
via mass-checks:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/NightlyMassCheck
You create the plugin and a blacklist, open a bug to get somebody to
add it to trunk (the development branch of spamassassin), it gets run
with mass-check, not only collecting stats on its effectiveness, but
also calculating an optimal score to use for it.
The ASRG (anti-spam research group) may or may not be useful to talk to
about new ways to deal with spam.
create plugin? It's been in the URIBL plugin for quite a white
URIBL.com makes use of it: "URIBL_BLACK_NS"
