Hi, I recently got a call from someone trying to send to my email @t-online.de (this is a division of german telecom). While I believe that my friend's ISP might occasionally send spam (any big isp might get unwanted customers), I searched for blacklists and found that isplisted only at blars. So thay probably use blars list too
