Usually, there's a contact address to use here.

Is that just on IPv4? In some cases, using IPv6 may work…

The short answer may be "their MXes, their rules"; finding someone
with a cluebat will often be the hardest part.

That does assume they've not outsourced the blacklisting side of
things, of course, when there's a further problem. It's probably worth
having a look at the reputation of the address block you're using;
https://grepular.com/projects/dnsblsearch.txt may be of interest/use.

In a previous role, skipping email and using the telephone worked for
getting through to the right person/department.

Social media may work in your favo(u)r here… ask how you might get in
contact with postmaster@ via twitter/other channels. And perhaps use
your community's help, too.

(NANOG or MailOp may be better channels)
