Maybe I've missed something but since when did spamhaus become
vengeance oriented? All we try to do is eliminate as much spam
as we can using a wide variety of blacklists at the same time.

Thanks

Suggested solutions:
a) whitelist williams
b) stop using SBLs similar to spamhaus.

It is a question of trust: Do you trust spamhaus to block 'evil' spammers? 

Do you trust them after they blocked important mails to your clients that
could -not- -possibly- have been spam?

Make your own conclusions.
