It is an easy part to get domains/organisations blacklisted by
spamtrap-driven blacklist-providers. Each project/site which runs a mailinglist
or does send bounces can be hived onto a spamtraps-driven blacklist by sending
mails to the ML service which either bounce or are replied to the spamtrap.
(I have seen one of spamcops spamtrap addresses on NANAS, btw).

That a sourceforge server got listed proves, that tqmcube.com does automatic
data processing, like spamcop - which indicates: it can be abused.
