That is the problem with spam traps, that is for sure.
Say you have a newsletter sign-up, anyone can add a spam trap email address, and even if you are operating a confirmed double opt-in mailing list, you could find you are listed.

Thankfully, most of operates of RBL's look to more than one case of this occurring.

But it would be helpful if you posted your IP here, full disclosure would help others help you.

And of course, did you bring this up with the UCE team?

Apparently one of my mail sending IPs was blocked for sending emails to
a spamtrap used by UCE (I won’t provide it here).

We emailed a PO on behalf of one of our customers.

Subject: Rechnung zur Bestellung # [redacted] bei [redacted]

Translation: Invoice for Purchase Order # [redacted] at [redacted]

It was a transactional email! I don’t know how anyone is supposed to
prevent something like this from happening. I can’t prevent a customer
from fat-fingering their email address, or from turning their address
into a spamtrap (I’m not sure if this was a recurring PO for a monthly
subscription or a

one-time purchase, I’m looking into this still).

I noted that the “from” address for this client was invalid (someone
typo’ed the domain), and I’ve passed that along. But that shouldn’t
matter if it’s a spam trap, right?

Any…suggestions? I’d prefer that my company switch all our clients to
Exact Target for these emails, but that’s really not up to me.
