Oh, that was just a sampling.. ;)

How about this one?

*.mta1.net
*.mta2.net

I mean really.. and they have SSL errors on mta2.net, and then finally it goes to a login page, with no company information... Hmm, just like some snowshoe spammers like to do do..

It's not a coincidence that if you are NOT using best practices, and transparency, especially for bulk emailers or ESP's that you end up a LOT more quickly on IP reputation lists, without any kind of 'grace' that might be offered to other providers.

There is never a 'too big to block' when not following best practices.

You can add https://emailsrvr.com/ -> Rackspace to that list.

E-mail is about transparency but as long as the mailop reaches out to D Telekom and identifies themselves and gives them private contact information, that they could add ​to their own private database, I don't see the need to make this info public.

    Think this thread went on a tangent, regarding the use of an 'imprint'
    (And yes, spammers are using sites with JUST the imprint as
    justification to remove their IP/domain)

    But ANYONE who uses a domain in their PTR record, that doesn't point to
    their company website, where contact information can be found on the
    operator, will suffer a hit to their reputation.  Wasn't this on a
    M3AAWG Best Practices document?

    eg..

    secureserver.net
    serverdata.net
    ppe-hosted.com
    cloudfilter.net
    hostedemail.com
    hwclouds-dns.com
    antispamcloud.com
    mktomail.com

    .. you can't 'white label' <sic>, email is about transparency.
