Hmm this just me of this post, where supposedly Facebook will be making the move into Webmail for its users. 
Interesting. Coincidence or not!?!?

Maybe I'm wrong on this, and I'm not a mailadmin anywhere nor have I been or pretended to have been in the past. But 
I'm pretty sure FB only sends you mail based on the prefrences you choose, and I know this is the answer you where 
given so mostly a statement. How does that equal spam :)

Anyone from Facebook or Spamcop lurking around to look into this? It's quite
annoying.. I can't imagine how many other users are scratching their heads on
this one...

I'm a long-time SpamCop member, so I forwarded your mail to the
deputies. They are aware that facebook's servers have been
sporadically listed, and one of them specifically said the following:

"Not much we can do about the listings.  They're sending spam to our 
traps in large enough numbers that raises the score to a listing level. 
 If Facebook were to follow best practices the spam complaints and
trap hits would drop to levels that keeps them from getting listed."
