You might want to make the Subject have something to do with the
content. Why should anyone read this message since the Subject line is so
silly.

An global RBL list can be somewhat dangerous since you never have any idea of
why name/addresses/etc are on the list. Some malicious actor could
decide that you belong there and submit/enter your name into the list.
FAr better for you to have your own where you know why you entered the
location.

The "community" includes a lot of people whose judgement I would
question.
