The relationship between Barracuda and EmailReg.org isn’t very clear. At the very least, Barracuda is sponsoring EmailReg.org, providing them with equipment, IP space, and referrals. Emailreg.org claims the $20/year is to keep spammers from abusing the service.
http://spamassassin.1065346.n5.nabble.com/emailreg-org-pretty-good-white-list-td67383.html I should mention that Rob McElwen—who I see just posted—runs a good RBL, I stopped using it earlier this year because we started using the Barracuda RBL when we bought our Barracuda appliances. Rob posted in the thread above that emailreg.org is legit. Mathias—I’m referring to transactional emails (“We have received your order”, “we have shipped your order”) as well as replies to emails from the customer (1.Customer emails, “where is my order?”, 2. Email agent replies, “we shipped it yesterday”, 3. customer marks reply as spam). Take a look at http://www.pfsweb.com/what-we-do/omni-channel-operations.php and http://www.pfsweb.com/clients/ and you should get a pretty good idea of what these emails look like.

But I still do my best to keep my mail servers off the other lists; usually this just means I stop sending email from one of my gateways for a week. I also had to sign up for the AOL junk reporting service because their users are too stupid to know the difference between the “delete” button and the “report junk” button.
