Sorry, let me restate: I know consequences of blocking large providers. I’m asking if others have found the same to be true, or if there is any reason to give SoftLayer benefit of the doubt? Once in a great while this kind of query generates clueful contact with said provider to get off their tail...
softlayer is turning into the U.S.'s version of Europe's OVH - many ranges of both are blocked, though the report rate has dropped significantly in months gone by for both, so if you block, leave yourself a note to unblock in 30 days or so and see how it pans out.
Alternatively, if you have a lot of users you provide for that gets legit softlayer mail, just score them high so they always end up in spam folder.
