I was under the impression that Spamcop didn't regard listing
earthlink/gmail/hotmail/foo as a problem.  They're smart enough to have
their own internal whitelists that they can handle as they see fit -
those servers don't exactly get listed at the first sign of trouble so
it seems somewhat deliberate to me.

You may find a personal whitelist more suited to your needs.  Either use
it as a guide to not bother doing RBL checks for a message but still
process other rules or use it as a meta to 0 out any RBL hit you find.
