Would the vix people have any interest in just adding "being a smurf amp"
to the possible causes for entry in the BGP version of RBL?  That way, it
would be harder for the smurf d00dz to get up to date lists. 

I suggested this sort of thing a while ago, but don't currently have time
to implement it.  The vix people already have everything in place.
