It happens. It's certainly happened to me. When you're a hosting co (like
the host I use), and have tens or hundreds of thousands of clients with
many domains, and some are businesses or organizations that legitimately
send out mass emailings, you're trying to catch the idiot whose machine
got infected, it was uploaded to their hosted site, and voila, spam going
out of your domain. *AND* the blacklisters *insist* on blocking the
*entire* address range assigned to the hosting co, rather than the source
IP.
