We've been advised by a client that they're incorrectly listing a /15.
APEWS is one of the many fringe hobby DNSBLs run from kids bedrooms. Nobody has ever heard of any network using APEWS so your client can not possibly be experiencing any mail issue due to any APEWS listing. Your client has simply looked up their IP address on some advert-laden "check your IP against a gazillion blacklists" website which happily reports every IP is 'listed' somewhere without mentioning that half the lists it checked against are not used by anyone except the kid running it.
