I went to http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space and grep-ed
for APNIC (Asia-Pacific Network Information Center) to get the following
list. For the church email site that I support I block wholesale /8 IP
address ranges. I assume that for our church we will never get email
from an APNIC site.

058/8 Apr 04 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
059/8 Apr 04 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
060/8 Apr 03 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
061/8 Apr 97 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
124/8 Jan 05 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
125/8 Jan 05 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
126/8 Jan 05 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
202/8 May 93 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
203/8 May 93 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
210/8 Jun 96 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
211/8 Jun 96 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
218/8 Dec 00 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
219/8 Sep 01 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
220/8 Dec 01 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
221/8 Jul 02 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)
222/8 Feb 03 APNIC (whois.apnic.net)

Here is my procmail recipe if that helps:

Great, if you intend to never correspond with 202/8, 203/8 and 210/8 you
just nuked most of New Zealand and a lot of Australia at the same time.

You might find that being a _tad_ more specific is useful. Believe it or
not, theres a lot of legit business conducted between Australasia and the
rest of the world...

(Who has historically had a LOT of trouble convincing some providers that
denying comms with New Zealand is a good way to get a whole nation up in
arms, especially if you're a big name telco in the US who is dropping IP
from a big name telco here...)

Sorry for replying again, but a quick google revealed this:

http://www.okean.com/asianspamblocks.html
(note the paragraph reccomending not blocking greater than /16 at a time)

And more specifically:

http://www.okean.com/china.html

This is probably what you're after, if you wish to block only China.
