Putting the OP's problem aside, it sounds like Andrew knows more about the
CBL listing criteria than most of us. My reading of the above is that
sending spam via exim won't get you on the CBL. (Unlike e.g spamcop,
which will list you). This suggests the CBL is looking for IPs exhibiting
specific characteristics of spamware, rather than simply IPs sending spam.

Of course, I may have got this wrong...
