The default is to use these list unregistered. Did that ISP register or
did Spamhaus track them down from the IP address?

Low-volume users that don't know they should be doing recursive lookups
will often get away with it, and even if they don't, being blocked isn't
significantly worse for them than turning-off spamhaus.

I thought most ISPs had outsourced or given-up on email. ISP email has
IMO always been a way of locking-in gullible customers.
