I've also found that having postfix block nearly all of the recently expanded internet TLDs has dramatically reduced both false negative and ‎maia filtering load. Unfortunately, if you are a provider that has to service more of these domains than not for some reason, this may not be practical, but for me it has been almost magical.

Thanks,
