It is very easy to deal with SpamCop's aggressive approach to blacklisting.... Email them and explain what you do and supply all of your IP addresses.
I manage the operations of the ISP I work for and was dealing with almost daily blacklistings until I emailed them explaining my business, domain and IP addresses. I have not been blacklisted since. They put me on their "buddy" list. The easiest approach to a problem is to just complain about it. Be proactive and you'll find that SpamCop's support is very professional and are providing you a pretty good service.
