And that's a pain in the butt, because it makes work for us. For example,
some of my users (university staff) were unable to contact the schools that
their children attend. It took work for me to persuade the remote admins to
stop using a particular RBL.

It's also a frequently asked question here: "which RBLs should I use?"

Is there a central, trusted resource for evaluating RBLs? Would a page on
the wiki be useful? I'd like something authoritative that I can point
remote admins to.
