This is why you should insist your hosting provider offer you 'rwhois'
for your IP, so that VadSecure and others can see that you operate the
IP, when you started using it, etc, and you will find that they may be
much more inclined to believe you.
And any hosting company that isn't willing to act on your behalf
regarding their reputation, you should stay away from.

Yes, it's a dedicated IP which I've had since 2013. I filled in the
removal request form with Vade but they require intervention from the
hosting provider. the NOC/Abuse team at digitalocean wrote back today
and basically said they don't vouch for or recommend their service for
email servers and don't intervene with DNSBLs. In other words, they
know some of their clients are shady but as long as the cheque
clears...
So that's where I am.

Is it your dedicated IP? Why not escalate to Vade yourself?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [mailop] Recommendations for host with good IP
reputation or use external SMTP?
I've been hosting my site and small postfix server (me and the missus are the
only accts) on Digitalocean since 2013.
Recently emails sent to a friend have started being rejected by Vadesecure,
which is used by their domain. That's really the only problem I've had with
deliveries in all this time. DO admits their IP reputation sucks and so won't
intervene with vadesecure on behalf of my IP.
My friend is literally the only acct I have problems sending to and I realize I
could
just use this gmail account, but this has become more of project because I just
want my self-hosted email server to be 100%.
I'm new to this list, so is there a thread in the archives that might discuss
VPS
hosts with clean IPs? Is it better to use an external SMTP provider whose whole
biz is having clean IPs?
Thanks for any pointers.
