Customers who use blacklists compiled by vengeance-oriented folk deserve 
what they get: No email.

Suggested solutions:
a) whitelist williams
b) stop using SBLs similar to spamhaus.

It is a question of trust: Do you trust spamhaus to block 'evil' spammers? 

Do you trust them after they blocked important mails to your clients that
could -not- -possibly- have been spam?

Make your own conclusions.
