As a side note, I'm spending a _lot_ of time recently on"whitelist" domains; in this context, domains that should never end up on the blacklist. I actively hunt down domains and add them to the whitelist even before they show up in a spam, so that if one of the submitters mis-submits earthlink.net, yahoo.com, surbl.org, or apache.org (*gulp*), those can never make it onto the blacklist.
This is a good way to avoid nasty surprises. Expect the phone to ring non-stop if yahoo.com was blacklisted.
There is a .apache.org host listed in a RBL. I'll leave it to the reader to find out the funny part of this. :)
