I see these from time to time. This is what gave rise to my intial inquiry about the frequency with which whitelited servers are hacked. Ideally, the whitelist should have a mechanism for temporarily suspending IP's that have been hacked. Perhaps running a check of their list against internet blacklists would help? If a spammer gets an IP blacklisted, at the least DNSWL and HABEAS should make note of this and remove the IP....
