A small number of recipients have been getting bounce-unsubscribed a
community mailing list that I administer.  The most recent bounces say
that this "blocked using Barracuda Reputation;
http://www.barracudanetworks.com/reputation/";  Visiting that page
provides no information on the specific reason my MTA has been blocked
so I can't determine if there is a configuration issue, but there is a
link for one-time removal.

you are blacklisted at http://www.barracudacentral.org/rbl
blame your users!

Below that the page says "One way to get your email through spam filters
even if you are listed on the BRBL is to register your domain and IPs at
EmailReg.org." OK, sounds good, I can prove that my IP address is
allowed to send for my domains -- I thought that was what SPF and DKIM
are for (which are configured) but whatever.

However, I click through to emailreg.org <http://emailreg.org> and AFTER
signing up for an account and configuring it they then reveal that there
is a $20 "administrative fee" per domain.

This sounds like a scam to me.  They're blacklisting mail servers, not
telling why, and then offering to take you off the list (without even
correcting any problems) for "just" a $20 fee.  I don't see how any
legitimate RBL can operate with that model.

no you don't understand how a Barracuda appliance works
emailreg.org is a whitelist like the ones spamassassin is using

in case of a barracuda appliance it overrides the RBL

Has anyone else here run into this?  Is there a way out other than
bribing Barracuda to not block my mail?

tell your customers don't send spam
