Can anybody recommend a hosting/VPS provider who does very careful monitoring of ip space and has strict vetting to avoid bad reputation? I have similar issues, though no magical connected person, so maybe helpful to move to somebody who does this.

Check out https://mxroute.com Someone mentioned them on HN a while back and said the service works really well. Note that I have not used this service myself.

If anyone's looking to distinguish themselves in the hosting/VPS space, I'd pay extra for a provider who verifies the personal identity of the server operator before allowing outbound email traffic. Make me jump through some hoops and pay some more, I'm game!

Exactly, this is what I was hoping for. Somebody who is very serious about keeping IPs clean.

Very happy using Vultr for an OpenBSD based mail stack. They unlock port 25 on demand if you have a valid use case.

I host at Hetzner for what, ten or so years. Never had a problem apart from some US idiots blocking access to their sites from EU because GDPR. (I run my personal VPN through it too).

The amount of spam coming in (exim4+dovecot, no filters) is comparable to gmail.
