I wonder if the 136 e-mail addresses includes the 39 million 'removes', so
they can boost their stats.

Of course, this proves sending a mail to get removed gets you added to a
list.

If you get added to a 'remove' list people are just as likely to stuff their
spam down that list too, and claim they had no idea....
