right, these blacklists where your IP is listed do not share data, so
they are all wrong and you are right :)

What could also happen is when your VPS provider assigns dynamic
IP numbers or the criminal/spammer that used that IP number before
you, trashed it's reputation

that probably does not bother you much either as it is someone else's
problem, which again, is fine.

phish/spam/etc

It is your IP with your reverse zone

not really, we use only three dnsbl's - most our clients are businesses
and we do not really want spyware/phish/spam/etc

Either way - you are also re-writing email bounce, kinda spammy thing
to do as well as it is counter transparent and serves to enforce FUD
All that in combination with 7 block lists, says a lot :)
