Which part?

For certain mail relays, filter rules are applied to hosts behind it,
not to the relay itself.

They do.  But blacklist operators do not seem to care.  (Same for some
routing database operators, BTW.)

Apparently, it's also possible to wipe clean the record on your inetnum:
objects, so it's understandable that the blacklist operators do not
automatically wipe all the records from their databases just because the
object appears to be new.
