we block with manitu = nixspam as our primary RBL (followed by Spamhaus). 
Results are excellent. Their blocking is very reasonable. It's also 
possible to ask for inclusion in the whitelist. Obviously your great ISP 
Roadrunner isn't interested in inclusion or is sending out so many spam 
that they won't include it. Ask Roadrunner.
Actually, Roadrunner has been known for years for big spam amounts 
originating from their network. I set it independently on our ACL for all 
mail servers years ago (not their whole IP range but all hosts matching 
their internet access assignment scheme).
So, what you ask for is supporting one of the biggest spam output 
machinaries (besides Chinese ISPs) on the net. Thanks, no.

> Because I'm not going to pay for colocation, or whatever.

Well, you are sending via monsterhost.com/bluehost.com which doesn't seem 
to belong to Roadrunner. So, what's your problem?
