IADB whitelist still worthless

The IADB whitelist just passed a list of diesel engine parts as surplus inventory to my CPA client. Here's the score:
* -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_OPTIN RBL: IADB: All mailing list mail is opt-in * [208.75.123.201 listed in iadb.isipp.com] * -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_LISTED RBL: Participates in the IADB system * -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_VOUCHED RBL: ISIPP IADB lists as vouched-for sender * -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_SPF RBL: IADB: Sender publishes SPF record * -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_SENDERID RBL: IADB: Sender publishes Sender ID record * -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_DK RBL: IADB: Sender publishes Domain Keys record * -0.0 RCVD_IN_IADB_RDNS RBL: IADB: Sender has reverse DNS record * -0.0 RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_H2 RBL: Average reputation (+2) * [208.75.123.201 listed in wl.mailspike.net]
On my server, I've marked all of these to a very low score to see what kind of spam actually comes through. For the most part, IADB passes junk mail. It is a paid for whitelist that has no management or testing facilities to ensure the email from servers they whitelist are actually legit.
