Don't use this one. It unfortunately still runs pks, and does not handle things like subkeys properly.
My favorite one is http://keyserver.pgp.com (ldap://keyserver.pgp.com for KGpg). It also requires to confirm your email address.
This server does not synchronize with the rest of the keyservers. That's a feature, not a bug, as the intent of the server is to validate your email address, as you noted, and it cannot do that if it could learn keys from places other than the user. It also signs your key for you to show that the email address was checked (this can get a little annoying as it re-signs the key now and then). It's an excellent server for particular uses. Note in particular that it is the default server in the commercial PGP product, so if you really want your key to be found...
