From the Project Honeypot FAQ's:
Is this another DNSBL for mail servers?No. Http:BL reports on IP addresses
used by harvesters, comment spammers, and other suspicious robots visiting
web pages. It does not include the IP addresses of the mail servers used by
spammers. There are lots of great mail server DNSBLs out there, including
those maintained by Spamhaus, SURBL, Spamcop, etc. We are not trying to
recreate the wheel.http://projecthoneypot.org/faq.php#b
