Whoever runs SPEWS are a bunch of morons. And don't bother taking 
their suggestion and going to the newsgroup. There's nothing but a 
bunch of 10 year olds there. At least that's the feeling I got out of 
it when I posted there and got nothing but a bunch of "NYAH NYAH NYAH 
NYAH NYAH" in return and no meaningful dialogue.

My IP is listed because my colo provider hosts some opt-in mailing 
lists. Never mind that I don't. Somehow I'm contributing to the 
problem by not taking them to court to get out of my contract and 
moving my servers to a different facility every time the one I'm with 
gets get listed. Yeah, THAT'S feasible.

Anyone who blocks entire ranges of IP Addresses is doing a great 
disservice to their customers. People with commons sense don't use 
blackholes like SPEWS.
