There's an even bigger problem - you have to make the difficult choice between:

1) Flag the DMZ mail server of every site that uses RFC1918 space, since the "previous
hop" is in their 1918 space.  This won't win you friends....

2) Allow a "pass" for 1918 space, and just accept that spammers will use a dummy
RFC1918 network (of possibly 1 node looped back to itself) to "look like" (1).
