I tend to agree, the real power behind a blocklist is the size and
composition of it's user base, no corporation in it's right mind would
implement such a restrictive filter as it would catch a lot of
legitimate mail. Who really cares if a few zealots with whom you have no
contact have you blocked? I certainly wouldn't.
