Wholesale Bandwidth are spammers, the 4th worst in the
world according to spamhaus.org.

According to senderbase.org, those two domains are the
8th and 18th biggest sources of all Internet e-mail,
ahead of entire networks of worm ridden cable users.

also makes interesting reading.

Are such networks maintained somewhere? SPEWS?

Spamhaus has useful data. There was some talk of a
MAPS style BGP feed from Spamhaus which would be
ideal, but I don't know what the current situation is.
SBL data is available direct from Spamhaus or from
http://spfilter.sourceforge.net/data/sbl/
