That's not a really valid argument imho. The bottleneck here would be
the mail-servers which *do* encounter false positives through it, and
then be checking those ip-addresses.

Here's already one
(after using bb.barracudacentral.org for less than 1 day):

From: Snowmail - Channel 4 News <snowmail_da...@channel4.com>

If you check 83.98.0.83 here (today 9th of nov 2009) :

http://www.dnsbl.info/dnsbl-database-check.php

you'll see that b.barracudacentral.org (yes, with one letter b) is the
only one blacklisting it.
