Uh, on the subject of verisign and spam, a quick look at one of the 
popular search engines brings up quite a stir. Lots of people seem to 
feel that verisign is itself guilty of spamming, or having others spam 
in their name. I have received several unsolicited commercial messages 
from verisign, even though I expressly told them not to send me anything 
I did not ask for. This is one of the reasons why took my business 
elsewhere.
So I am not that surprised that verisign showed up in a blacklist.

This aside, I don't use blacklists because I do not want to give away 
access control to my mail servers to others.
