I get a couple calls a week from people asking how we got off of it. Think if it as an opportunity to network with others. :) For those who are reading this three months from now on Google, we got off the blacklist.mail.ops.worldnet.att RBL by emailing [email protected] from a hotmail account. It took about 24 hours and I never received an "It's all better now" email, it just started working.
