Often RBL services use this technique as leverage to get the guilty
parties cleaned up since the innocents are bound to make a large stink
about it.

Ironically, my server (which hosts tmda.net, gnus.org and others) is
currently blacklisted by spews.org.  My ISP has thousands of hosting
customers, and a few of them started spamming.  So, spews blacklisted
their entire network address space, me included.  Spews is almost
impossible to communicate with, and it doesn't look like the situation
will be resolved anytime soon.

You are playing with fire if you hook up with rogue RBL services.

:-) See my previous post.  Humans tend to let emotion cloud reason.
