Any list which you trust enough to make the decision *which* mails you
accept for you.
Which would leave "none" for me.
Even sbl.spamhaus.org contains a blacklist, which sometimes lists
because of the name the machine has (CBL that is).

DNSBL has information on many RBLs together with statistics on their
effectiveness:
http://stats.dnsbl.com/
Other popular RBLs besides Spamhaus include Spamcop, PSBL and uceprotect.
As Ralph says, any RBL should be used with a certain amount of caution
as it has the potential to cause FPs (some more so than others). An
alternative approach is to use such RBLs as part of a scoring system
such as SpamAssassin. This is particularly useful for RBLs that you
don't trust to outright reject mail at the smtp level.
If you want to improve on the performance of sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org, I
would first look at switching to the combined zen.spamhaus.org zone
which also contains the pbl.spamhaus.org zone. My own data shows
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org to block around 50% of spam whereas
zen.spamhaus.org hits on around 90% of spam with very few FPs for me -
YMMV. You should monitor performance closely.
