Hi there.
 
I was there too! (Habeas employee #3).
 
Habeas is no more, we (Return Path) bought them last August.
http://www.returnpath.net/blog/2008/08/return-path-to-acquire-habeas.php
 
To address a couple of issues raised here ...
 
We have only just begun doing compliance work on Safelist. SA scoring is, of
course, your server, your SpamAssassin rules. I can't speak to what went on
in the past but it is a new day for Habeas clients. We will be applying
programme standards compliance in the same firm, even-handed manner as we do
Sender Score Certified.
 
If you are presently dissatisfied with the standardized scoring and have
re-weighted, please consider keeping an eye on our performance via the QA
tests Justin made note of, and your own views.
 
As to the complaint submission issues noted here are concerned, the best
point of contact moving forward for SA users would be
sa-ab...@senderscorecertified.com (please don¹t use my personal address as I
travel frequently, and our Standards team see stuff sent to this alias in
our ticketing queue). Please be sure to make note of the issue being
Safelist or Sender Score Certified, preferably in the subject line.
 
We acknowledge that there may be some suboptimal hotspots, and we welcome
any data points you can provide. I do want to let you know that given the
immense amount of work ahead of us, (we are working towards systems
integration which is an non-trivial task, along with getting up to speed on
existing clients and issues), responses and actions taken may require a
longer-turn around time than is our intended end-point.
 
What I can say is that we have a proven track-record (BondedSender -> Sender
Score Certified) and so your patience and help during this transition period
is much appreciated.
