Time to switch providers, I'd say.  But in any case, that's the fault
of the provider in question, not of the DNSBL, or of DNSBLs as a class.
The DNSBL is doing just what it told its users it would do - list
blocks reported to them by providers - and your issue, as reasonable
and serious as it is, is between the provider and you, or the provider
and the DNSBL, depending on and who's made what claims to whom and
which way you prefer to squint your mind.

Unless that _isn't_ what the DNSBL tells its users it will do....
