The message was
address@domain
SMTP error from remote mailer after MAIL FROM:<myaddress@mydomain>:
host rusonyx.ru [212.24.38.14]: 550 5.7.1 Mail from 207.217.120.122 refused by blackhole site work.drbl.rusonyx.ru
It is some Russian spam-list, and since the server we are talking about is Earthlinks' server in the US, nobody really cares about it... The web-site of drbl can be found at http://www.drbl.ofisp.org/eng/
Indeed, my private ips stay the same all the time, it is the public ip
that changes from week to week.
Cheers,
Constantine.
