GMX's outgoing mail hosts are listed in the spamcop bl. Which pretty
much results in GMX users not being able to e-mail to spamcop users.
GMX is a white hat.

disable the spamcop BL in my servers. Which I did after finding GMX
re-listed for the third time.

No. Spamcop's policy is guaranteed to generate false positives, and as
that, I can't afford to use them on machines that move e-mail for my
customers.
>So why would you handle all other RBLs different from Spamcop?
I don't.
This will probably change when exim 4's Debian packages come in and
after I have figured out to configure RBLs by recipient. In that case,
the customers could choose which RBL to use. As long as I have to
choose for the entire machine, the most conservative setting gets to
be used.
