What about trouble with the DNSBL lists?  I know when I changed my IP
address I had to work to get the new one removed from a few blacklists
it had previously been placed on.  I wasn't sending spam, but my
messages would have been blocked under that config if I hadn't done
the work to get the IP off the lists.
