We use it to help advise us with respect to the IADB accreditation
database, and what we have found is that yes, there are a lot of
complaints for legitimate opt-in mail, but a demonstrable change in
*volume* (rather than the valid:invalid complain ratio) can often
notify us very early on about a problem mailing by someone listed in
IADB. Due to the nature of the senders listed in IADB, typically a
"what's going on with this??" inquiry will result very quickly in a
problem customer of the sender's either getting a clue or getting the
boot.
