True, but you shouldn't blacklist an entire server's mail on the basis of
one person's complaint without any human intervention.

We did. I took a look at Roadrunner's policies and we fit them entirely
(i.e. double opt-in plus unsubscribe info in every message). But if you
make it easier for someone to report spam than to unsubscribe, they'll
take what is easiest and won't even think about the consequences.
