Google's e-mail servers get on the various DNSBL's frequently.
I occasionally get in to an argument with a customer who is trying to get mail from someone after a spam run came out of a google mail server and landed it on a DNSBL. The argument presented to me always boils down to "Google could never do anything wrong" or "Google is too big to do anything wrong" and I should immediately stop recommending any DNSBL that would dare to block Google. ~Seth
