Whitelisting SpamCop

You will never receive an answer or any useful help from self-proclaimed, vigilante "anti-spam operations" like SpamCop or Blars, even after you "fix" every possible imaginary problem they might be having with you -- it won't happen. They block, but they don't answer "why" (even though there must be a reason, right?). They don't unblock even when you do everything humanly possible, and they don't take responsibility for their actions.

When we mention spam-fighting companies, we are not concerned with these vigilante operations like SpamCop, which can put a company on a blacklist merely due to a few unsubstantiated complaints, then cover their Web sites with disclaimers absolving them of responsibility.

These companies have never been helpful, and their rhetoric always smacks more of anti-business, with anti-spam being a useful vehicle. They are being marginalized, more and more, by all serious business. Just like in the Wild West way back, vigilantes are on the way out.
