I really doubt that he participates in the NORTH AMERICAN network operators group. SORBS -- like _any_ other blocklist -- is simply an expression of opinion. if you feel that "somebody" is 'wrongly' blocking mail because of a SORBS listing, your _first_ step should be to contact *that* party, and request that either (a) they stop using SORBS, or (b) that they 'whitelist' you. *THEY* are the ones that made the decision to block your mail to their system. Contact means for SORBS *is* provided on the web-site. it works reliably. Be advised, however, that a 'need' on your part does not translate to urgency on the part of anyone else. Note: *Nobody*, not even SORBS, says you 'have to' make that charitable contribution. All the 'spam' listings _do_ "age off" the SORBS system, eventually. Caveat: I have nothing to do with SORBS. I don't use it -- or *any* blocklist, for that matter -- myself (I use other means that are better suited for _my_ requirements). I don't even know the operator thereof. Everything I've said is based on published and publicly available information.
