There's a german statement from the Nix Spam RBL.

http://www.heise.de/ix/foren/S-Re-Mailinglisten-Bestaetigungs-Email-an-
Spamtrap-legt-Gentoos-Mailinglisten-
lahm/forum-48292/msg-18035095/read/showthread-1/

As many here probably can't read german, the important points are:
- RFC 3834 defines headers for automatically sent mails, seems our mailing 
list software doesn't do that - but robbat2 commented in his blog is already 
in contact with upstream about that.
- they claim that nobody contacted them directly and their automatic delisting 
method was not used.

I'm personally using the mentioned RBL on my servers and I read some articles 
and heared some talks from their operators and generally think they are doing 
good work, so I wanted to share that.
