Everytime I setup a new website that will be blasting to their mail list, I first create an abuse email address with their domain, I then alias this address to my email. Then I go through all the feedback loops below and get them signed up. I have found that if you want your clients to keep their lists clean you will have to be the one who removes the bounces and feedback loop notifications. If you leave it in their hands it won't happen. They will put it off, or ignore it, until finally they have ruined the reputation of their mail server's IP. Since my success is based on their success which drives referrals and good clients, its important to keep their IP reputation clean.
Separate from the Feedback Loops I highly recommend every checkout Return Path's SenderScore.org. This will give you a quick overview of how your mail server is doing.
I wish that ReturnPath would setup some kind of universal FBL form. But instead you have to get through every website to get the form setup. The worst part is if you ever move to a new IP with your mail server you will need to shutdown all the old FBL requests, and then reapply with the new IP. I just recently moved my server to a new Datacenter. Its going to take me at least a few days to get all the FBL stuff updated. List of Feedback Loops.
Yahoo Feedback Loop
Yahoo requires that you first have a yahoo account, which will be tied to all FBL entries you make. Their interface is nice and simple, but in my opinion Return Path's Form is the simplest.Yahoo Feedback Loop Request Form
AOL Feedback Loop
American Online similar to yahoo does not use the standard Return Path Form. They require you fill out their custom form, and they have separate forms for managing your feedback loop.AOL explanation of the feedback Loop ( FBL ) application process
