My guess would be that in order to build the blacklist your blacklist
provider won't use the mails that are sent to real users, except perhaps
if the user's mail accounts are hosted in a partner firm whose Eula
allows them to provide a blacklister with their user's data. I also have
heard that some blacklist providers scan mails that end up in
no-more-used old mail accounts. Since sourceforge adds Spam to most of
the mails they send out and some of their mailing lists will end up in
mail accounts no one has cared to unsubscribe for this might explain why
they ended up blacklisted while I until now didn't.
