Here's a small nightmare for you ... My wife and I are moving from SF (Marin County) to LA (Montovia). I needed a place to move my web/mail server while we're between houses. Someone from a local list pointed me to a co-location facility in downtown LA. Great connections, cheap prices. (Cheaper than my Covad business DSL line actually.)
So I moved the machine there, and spent three days waiting for DNS to propagate. Now I discover that the IP address they assigned to me is listed in SPEWS. The block was once issued to a spammer. It looks like the ARIN block assignment has been cancelled, and the only holder of the block is calpop.com, my colo service. But even if SPEWS takes pity and removes it -- who knows who might move in as IP neighbors on the block? It's a very attractive place for a spammer to put a machine.
