If it was because of open proxies or relays on client IP
addresses, those servers really should have ended up on
multihop.dsbl.org, NOT list.dsbl.org.

If you can tell me the IP address(es) in question, I'll
take a look at what happened.  If one of the trusted
testers maliciously put the wrong tested IP address in
the DSBL message, it's time to demote an account to
untrusted...
