Every now and again, one of my ISP's mail servers will find its way
onto a RBL (realtime blackhole list) such as that. Usually they get
it resolved in a couple of hours. But my ISP is pretty proactive
about stomping on spammers and people with open relays. Maybe if the
RBL proprietors thought they were lax, it might take a bit longer to
get off. (And every RBL has its own criteria, one or two have
reputations of being very slow to unlist.)
