We do business all over the world and I see a lot of fp's on Zen.
in which sublist? xbl, sbl or pbl? and when you say "a lot", how
many?
can you show an example of an IP that you consider as an FP?
I am interested in to, since I had uses <sbl-xbl> and then <zen> and
never gotten FPs

Well I guess in the end it all depends on how you define a FP.
The way I mostly record it here is genuine emails being blocked.
Another fresh example from today is 193.173.161.178 from XBL inherited
from CBL.
From what I can see something on the IP is supposedly trojan/virus
infected, however we are doing a great amount of business with a company
using this IP to send email and blocking their email will cost us alot
of money.
IMHO that company needs to learn to take precautions. They could easily
block outgoing port 25 smtp other than for their mail server at their
NAT firewall thus ensuring that infected spambots aren't allowed to sit
there spewing spam from their internal network and legitimate mail is
only allowed to be sent through their outgoing smtp server (the CBL page
even explains this). If they don't harden their own network and they
spew spam then they will get their IP blacklisted.
The company in question must also be losing money as a result of their
emails being blocked. You'd think that would be some incentive for them
to take some action wouldn't you.
The easy solution for you is to whitelist any such domains that you
absolutely don't want blocked at the smtp level.
