I don't think any of these replies are actually correct. I had exactly the same message from mail-in.pol.net.uk relating to some mail passing through my server to one of my clients (a Freeserve.co.uk subscriber) for whom I operate MX services. I can see from my logs that subsequent mail to freeserve has gone through, via mail-in.pol.net.uk. The relevant IP address does not appear on any of the blacklists covered by the link below and the mail server is not promiscuously relaying. My conclusion is that freeserve had a temporary problem.

I have had this 'problem' of blacklisting once before, since I've started hosting my sites from behind my DSL at home. My particular IP at the time of the problem was 'blacklisted' because my ISP had my IP on a list of 'End Users' - ie, "shouldn't be sending out emails directly"... For the life of that IP, it was easiest just to set up sendmail to send out thru my ISP's SMTP server. Now that my IP has switched again, I don't seem to be having the blacklist problems, and have switched sendmail back to direct outward SMTP...
